He shot him. >> On January 6th, 2023 in Columbus, Ohio, officers are dispatched after reports of a shooting at an apartment complex on West Horizons Drive. What begins as another emergency call quickly turns into a tense search for answers with freaked out witnesses, conflicting information, and one question hanging over the entire scene. What exactly happened before police arrived? It's said 3647. >> Yeah, that's where I live. I don't know this building number. >> 153, it's going to be 3671. I'll get your apartment number here in a minute. >> Is Where's the boyfriend >> for now? >> She came to me. I was going to come back here.

What do you say it was a what kind of car? >> A Geo Metro Jeep Wrangler near Oh my god. Can we go back to the car? I have a daughter and a kid. I have kids and they keep trying to >> Okay, but you said he's >> I believe so, you guys. Yes. >> [laughter] >> I don't understand. So, was he trying to shoot you? What what's going on? >> No, somebody shot >> Where is your boyfriend? In the car or is he in the back? >> I'm confused what you're asking. >> Who was shot? >> My boyfriend was shot. >> Where is your boyfriend AT? >> OKAY. >> I DON'T KNOW, YOU GUYS. >> We need to find him so we can help him. >> HE'S IN THE CAR UNLESS HE DUMPED HIM. I DON'T KNOW. HE was in the car and he got in the Jeep and he tried to chase me. >> go this way. >> Right away, you can hear the confusion. One woman is saying her boyfriend's been shot. Another man may have taken off in a maroon Jeep and nobody seems to know exactly who's where. In my opinion, these are some of the toughest calls officers respond to because every second matters. But the information keeps changing. >> Do you have anything in the bag? >> I don't, but I just got my If I can get my phone, maybe I can call people. It was on the ground. >> No, we need to find out where he is. I need to find out to make sure that he's all right. >> He's not. He shot him in the head is what I told you. >> I'm trying to help you. >> Back in the back, we were in the car. He shot him. I mean, I was driving. My boyfriend's in the passenger seat. The guy was back here. He shot him. He shot him from the back and in his head. >> Here, sit back here. >> Okay, can you see my >> Sit back here. >> What? You're not being cooperative. >> Yes, we are. >> 150, we've got one down on the ground back here. Hey, what car what car brought him here? >> I don't know. >> You don't know? 150, it's going to be a 43. >> Yeah, I just walked out the house. >> All right, now we're going to have to advise everyone to head that way. >> Did you see it? >> Nah, I literally just walked out the house. >> see anything? Hey, give me a light. Give me a light. Where's he shot? It looks like he was in >> the head. >> Looks like in the head. >> Is that brain matter right there? >> Yeah, it's [ __ ] >> By now, the panic is setting in. The woman can't even keep her story straight, saying he might not be alive because he'd been shot in the head. In my opinion, when witnesses start speaking in shock rather than certainty, officers know the next few moments will bring the answers to the questions nobody wants answers to. >> I don't know. I need to get my phone. I'm so scared. I don't even know >> Right, you got to stay here for right now, okay? This is the safest place, okay? >> Can I call Can I call my dad? >> I wouldn't call anybody right now, no. >> I have My daughter's at daycare. >> Right, so keep your daughter there for now. >> They close and they won't keep her. >> Okay, well, listen. There's a lot of stuff going on right now, okay? >> And my keys I DIDN'T GET MY KEYS. I KNOW THAT. I you I just saw you like >> I get what you Listen to me. >> Can I just have a phone to call my dad? What is that? >> Right, but you can't tell him anything. >> No, I'm not. I just have to tell I I already told him and told him my They tried to kill me. He tried to [ __ ] shoot me. Are you crazy? >> I need a description of the person. What's Okay, the guy that What's he look like? Was he male, white, male Hispanic, male black? How tall are you? >> 5'8. >> Okay, that'll wait. >> 220 to 30. >> Okay. And what was he wearing today? Do you remember? >> That's all I know. >> What kind of hat? Was it a beanie or was it like a ball cap? >> ball cap like a baseball >> Like a ball cap? >> Like a yeah, not >> Like a flat bill ball cap? >> The witness starts describing what the shooter was wearing, but then reality kicks in. She's worried about something no one expects in the middle of a homicide scene. Who's going to pick up her daughter from school? In my opinion, moments like this remind you that life doesn't pause just because tragedy shows up. >> Hey man, come here, please. Step on this. Step on this so the ambulance can get in. Put your foot right here. Just step on it and stay out of the way of this ambulance. >> One of three 5150s. Got it. >> Just stay there, please. >> A3 and you are aware that subject is going on all channels. >> You're good. Thank you. Do we have an idea on this guy? >> Yeah. One guy Justin Douglas. >> She's not being very cooperative. She's in like freaking panic mode. >> With EMS finished and the scene finally under control, officers shift their focus to the only eyewitness left behind. If you ask me, making sure she gets home safely matters just as much as processing the crime scene. After all, when the shooter is still out there, you can't blame anyone for wondering if they could come back. >> Okay, try to call and see if you can locate it and then we'll kind of go from there, but she wants to try to get a hold of her dad to let for child care reasons, but she thinks like this guy might make his way back over to her place even though she doesn't even know who this person is or if she even knows where they live. So, that's kind of where we are right now, but um I'll bring her over there for 150, okay? All right, later. Yep. >> Well, that's what I was here for. I was going to say you can talk don't burn my car so that you can go and be with staff. >> That's fine. >> Um we got to get a hold of I'm going to leave cuz they're filming now, so I'm going to >> Thanks for having us going to take this up. >> Can you stay right here for now? >> Me? >> No, not you, sir. Can you stay right here for now? And just block this so I can back up and go that way? Hey, can you uh put a belt buckle on her real quick? >> quick. >> Yeah. Why do we need this help? What can I do for >> No, I was just this where I pulled up. She was She was found in there. >> Got it. >> They're trying to call your phone right now to find it back there, okay? And then what we're going to do, I'm going to bring you back there and we're going to try and make a phone call to your dad, okay? >> Ron Robinson, 42, was later charged with felonious According to investigators, the victim later died from his injuries and the suspect was identified after detectives continued their investigation.
