Columbus police arrest alleged shooter in attempted revenge murder.

In May, police named Dillan Bush, 21, a suspect after an investigation revealed his possible involvement in a 2023 shooting in the 5700 block of Morningstar Drive. But police said the victim, a 44-year-old man, was not the intended target.

Police took possession of Bush’s phone, which they say he used persuade someone else to shoot at a house, with the wrong house eventually being shot at. That other person has been identified as Nuh Mohamed Ali, who was arrested Wednesday on charges of improperly discharging a firearm and a placeholder felony charge.

Detectives learned that the intended house was shot at previously and that Bush had allegedly made threats to kill a man there for the accidental shooting of his brother, David Lee Bush, who was found dead in March 2019 in the Hilltop.

The first attempted revenge shooting occurred on Aug. 10, 2023. Police said a man was getting out of his car on Morningstar Drive when a vehicle approached him and a person inside fired several shots at the house. The house and car were struck several times, though the man himself was uninjured.

Three weeks later, on Sept. 2, officers responded two houses from the original incident and found the 44-year-old suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the torso. Several other gunshot holes were found scattered throughout the front of the home, where someone drove past firing shots.

The investigation led to Bush's arrest in May on attempted murder and other charges. He was issued a $1 million bond and had been serving a three-year community control sentence for drug possession.

Police say Ali admitted to knowing Bush, accepting money from him and being in the immediate area when the shooting occurred.

A judge on Thursday issued a $1 million bond and ordered him to next appear in court on July 26.
