According to Columbus police murder investigators, the tragic killing last month inside a Roosters diner on the city’s Northeast Side was caused by a feud among two former schoolmates and friends. On February 18, an 18-year-old male was shot at and died at a Roosters diner in Northland. According to authorities, Jesus Castro, aged 18, of South Linden, was apprehended on a murder conviction on Wednesday in reference to the deadly shooting of 18-year-old Marshawn Davis that took place last month.

Why was Marshawn Davis murdered?
Marshawn Davis and Jesus Castro were “former schoolmates and attended the same classes together for numerous years,” as per court documents. Sources informed authorities that Castro had threatened to murder Davis in the past, according to court filings. Marshawn Davis was murdered at the Roosters diner, 2454 E. Dublin-Granville Rd., approximately 10:15 P.M, on February 18. He was hanging around near the restaurant’s entryway, waiting for his food to be served. Just then, someone opens the diner’s outer entrance, fires at minimum one gunshot into the vestibule space, and afterward flees, according to surveillance tape.
