Three Columbus Shootings Kill Two, Wound Three Others

Two people are dead and three others are hospitalized after three shootings in Columbus late Sunday and early Monday. Police say one person was killed early this morning on Republic Avenue, just hours after another fatal shooting at North Fourth Street and East Eighth Avenue. A third person was wounded in a barage of gunfire on Old Coventry Road East. The victims have yet to be identified. Police are searching for motives and suspects.
