Man Sentenced For Role In Eastland Mall Shooting

wikipedia

A Columbus man will serve two years in prison for his role in a double-shooting last July at Eastland Mall. 19-year-old  Homer Hill II pleaded guilty as part of a plea agreement. Prosecutors say Hill was at the mall with friends when he spotted someone he thought had shot him. 16-year-old Isaiah King fired, wounding two people. Prosecutors will ask a judge on March 2 to try King as an adult.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
