INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A man was taken to a hospital early Tuesday morning after being shot in the head on the northeast side of Indianapolis, police said.
Around 2:15 a.m., Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were called to a shooting on Fall Creek Parkway near 46th Street and Binford Boulevard.
IMPD says two men were driving when they saw a group of people loading up guns and decided to try and intervene. When they did, someone in the group fired shots at them, striking one of the men in the head.
Officers at the scene described the man’s injury as minor.
Police are looking for two or three people involved in the crime.
On Tuesday night, Lt. Shane Foley said in an email to the news media that an additional investigation happened at the victim’s home after a search warrant was executed, and IMPD found several guns, a significant amount of marijuana, drug paraphernalia, and other narcotics.
IMPD has not publicly identified the victim, or shared any suspect information. No arrests have been announced.
Anyone with information was asked to contact IMPD or Crime Stoppers with any tips.
