Two people found shot to death inside vehicle at Casey’s General Store
GREENTOWN, Ind. (WISH) — Two people were found shot to death Monday night in a vehicle parked in front of Casey’s General Store in Greentown, a Howard County town of 2,300.
Officers were first dispatched around 6:30 p.m. to conduct a welfare check, police said.
Dozens of authorities from multiple agencies swarmed the scene after officers found the gunshot victims in the parking lot of the convenience store, located at U.S. 35 and State Road 231.
The man and woman in the vehicle had not yet been identified Monday night.
Officials with the Greentown Police Department and Howard County Sheriff’s Office were unable to confirm the relationship between the gunshot victims. Authorities on scene indicated both decedents were Greentown residents.
Investigators had not yet determined who shot the victims Monday night but said they were not actively seeking any suspects.
The incident was “isolated” and presented no threat to the community, according to Capt. Jordan Buckley, a spokesperson for the Howard County Sheriff’s Office.
“Evil will show its face anywhere,” Buckley said, when questioned about the anomaly of a double death investigation in Greentown. “It just happened to be here tonight.”
