‘I went straight to the floor. We all did,’ a man who identified himself as Scott’s uncle said.

Five people were inside the home on Hiddenspring Drive when the incident occurred. 

No one else was injured. Scott did not live in the home.

A Columbus police spokesman says multiple shots were fired at the home on the city’s northeast side. 

‘It’s just as bad for the family on any day. The only thing I would think is every Thanksgiving they’ll probably think about this,’ said Sgt. Stan Latta of the Columbus police homicide unit, according to the Dispatch. 

No suspects or motive for the shooting has been released.
