Ginther and Bryant are scheduled to appear at 3 p.m. for a news conference at police headquarters.
The first shooting happened around 2:30 a.m. Saturday in the 600 block of North High Street. Several blocks to the south, a second shooting broke out that ended with responding officers returning fire.
Police shut down the stretch running through the heart of the Short North for nearly 12 hours as it and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation combed the area.
