Gavin Hardin’s swollen hands and feet are a vivid reminder of what he has been through and the long road that lies ahead. The 18-year-old was shot near the basketball courts at Lincoln Park in Columbus last week.
“From being one of those athletic kids that could go pick up his friends and play a game to now not being able to use the restroom by myself — just lying in this bed. I can’t even play Xbox,” Hardin said.
Two suspects were taken into custody over the course of the investigation, according to police. They are now formally charged in connection to the shooting. A probable cause document shows that Oats and Hardin were involved in an ongoing conflict related to a female they both previously dated.
