INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A person died and another was injured in a double shooting Monday night in a neighborhood on Indy’s northeast side.
The person’s name hasn’t been released. The person injured in the shooting was said to be in stable condition.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were called to the 3800 block of Sherman Forest Lane around 10:54 p.m. Monday on a shots fired report.
That’s in a residential area right off 58th Street, near College Avenue and Kessler Boulevard East Drive.
When officers arrived, they found two people with gunshot wounds. Both victims were taken to a hospital, one of them in critical condition. IMPD said early Tuesday morning that the person at the hospital died due to their injuries.
Detectives said later Tuesday morning that they believe a fight broke out between two people that resulted in gunfire, and a third party was caught in the crossfire. They did not say if the third party was the person who died or not.
Anyone with information on the shooting was asked to contact Det. Kyle Hoover at the IMPD Homicide Office at 317-327-3475 or email him at Kyle.Hoover@indy.gov.
