According to IndyStar 30-year-old Indianapolis man was fatally shot outside his vehicle near the Fountain Square neighborhood southeast of Downtown late Saturday night.
Police were called on a report of a person shot in the 800 block of Grove Avenue shortly before 9 p.m., according to a written advisory from Sgt. Paul Thompson, spokesman for the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
The man was taken to Wishard Memorial Hospital where he died minutes later, according to Thompson. The victim’s name was not released pending notification of family.
This news is not only sad for the family, it’s also sad for the City as they attempt to attract and retain families and businesses in an at-risk neighborhood.
Fountain Square has come along way but still has further to go. We as a community need to continue to support and look out for this vital Cultural District.
