Woman Found Dead, Man Critically Injured in Southwest Columbus Mobile Home
A woman was found dead and a man was seriously injured inside a mobile home in southwest Columbus on Monday morning, according to police.
Officers with the Columbus Division of Police were dispatched around 9 a.m. to the 1600 block of Dyer Road on an unknown complaint, said Sgt. James Fuqua.
When officers arrived, they located an unresponsive woman and an injured man inside the residence. The woman was pronounced dead at the scene. The man was transported to a local hospital in critical condition.
Fuqua said investigators are still working to determine exactly what happened. He described the scene as severe and said detectives are considering the possibility of a domestic-related assault. The relationship between the two individuals has not yet been confirmed.
Authorities have not released the names of those involved.
Detectives remained at the scene for several hours collecting evidence while neighbors waited outside police tape.
Chris Steinhour, who lives nearby, said he was at work overnight and did not see or hear anything unusual.
“I got a message that said I wasn’t going to be able to get into my house because they had it all blocked off,” Steinhour said, adding that the neighborhood is typically quiet.
Police are asking anyone with information to contact Detective Camp-Donovan at (614) 645-2557, the Homicide Unit at (614) 645-4730, or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at (614) 461-TIPS (8477).
“We don’t want anybody to lose their life in the city of Columbus,” Fuqua said. “Unfortunately, something tragic has happened, and a family has lost a loved one.”
The investigation remains ongoing.
