Shannon Hiott Dies in Colombus Stabbing, Husband Chance Donohoe Charged

Columbus police homicide detectives have identified a woman who was stabbed to death Tuesday morning on the city’s South Side, and the man who later called police from a gas station in Powell to report he had killed her.

Shannon Hiott, 29, was found at her home after a 6:05 a.m. call about a possibly dead person at the residence in the 1400 block of Berkeley Road, according to the Columbus Division of Police.

Upon arriving, officers found Hiott, who was unresponsive and pronounced dead by medics at 6:18 a.m.

Chance A. Donohoe, 26, had apparently called Powell police from a Sheetz gas station a short time later Tuesday morning and allegedly admitted he had killed the woman, whom he identified as his wife, according to Columbus police homicide detectives.

However, Donohoe was actually an ex-boyfriend of Hiott’s whom she broke off with after he allegedly stole from her, according to a close friend.

A felony charge of receiving stolen property had been filed against Donohoe in March by Whitehall police in Franklin County Municipal Court, but it was not immediately clear if that case was related to Hiott. It was closed at apreliminary hearing in April at the request of prosecutors, who indicated that charges could be refiled in Franklin County Common Pleas Court. An online search of Common Pleas Court records on Tuesday night found no records in a search of Donohoe’s name.
