Anthony Fowler and Alexander Quarterman were sentenced to life in prison for the 2022 slaying of an Akron man. AKRON, Ohio — A Summit County judge has sentenced two men to life in prison after both were found guilty of the slaying of an Akron man in July 2022.

Anthony Fowler, 44, of Akron, will be eligible for parole after serving 18 years in prison, while Alexander Quarterman, 49, of New York, will be eligible for parole after 25 years, according a news release from Summit County Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh’s office. On May 17, a jury convicted both men of two counts of murder with firearm specifications, felonious assault with a firearm specification, and felonious assault for the 2022 killing of Derrick Patterson in West Akron.

Prosecutors say Fowler and Quarterman got into a fight with Patterson at a convenience store on Copley Road. Patterson’s nephew intervened, then drove his uncle away from the store and dropped him off about a block away, prosecutors say. Fowler and Quarterman drove by moments later and ran over Patterson, then shot and killed him, prosecutors say.If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
