On July 11, 2015, Dominique Thomas, aged 23, was found deceased in Columbus, Ohio, near the intersection of Franklin Park South and Franklin Park West. Medics and police were dispatched early in the morning around 6:14 a.m. after receiving reports of a man lying on the sidewalk. Upon arrival, they found Dominique already deceased across from 135 Franklin Park West. Authorities have treated this case as a homicide, but it remains unsolved.
The Columbus Division of Police continues to seek assistance from the public to gather any information that may help solve the case and bring justice for Dominique and his family.
Despite ongoing efforts by the Columbus police, few details about the incident have surfaced that could lead to a resolution. Dominique Thomas's death was part of a broader pattern of violence in Columbus that summer, which included several similar cases that remain under investigation. The authorities continue to encourage anyone with information to contact them or submit tips to Crime Stoppers. The homicide cold case unit remains dedicated to finding answers for Dominique's loved ones and addressing the community’s safety concerns.
