On February 28, 2000, John Kyles, a 28-year-old resident of Columbus, Ohio, was tragically shot and killed. The incident occurred at 2264 Delbert Road in Franklin County, where Kyles sustained a fatal gunshot wound.

Despite efforts to uncover leads, no suspects have been publicly identified, and the case has since been classified as a cold case by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI). Authorities are still actively seeking any information that could provide new insights into Kyles' death. The BCI and Columbus Police continue to appeal to the public for tips that might help bring justice to John Kyles and closure for his loved ones.
If anyone has information regarding this case, they are encouraged to reach out to law enforcement. Cold cases like that of John Kyles are kept visible in the hope that, with time, new evidence or witness testimony might lead to a breakthrough. The Ohio Attorney General's Office and BCI have also made resources available for individuals to submit information anonymously to help solve the case.
