Man killed in north side shooting

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A 26-year-old man died early Monday after he was found shot at an apartment complex on the city’s northeast side, Indianapolis police said.

Just after midnight, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were dispatched to a report of a person down in the 4100 block of Meadows Lane. That’s the address of an apartment building just west of 42nd Street and Sherman Drive.

Officers arrived and found a man with gunshot wounds. He was taken to a local hospital and pronounced deceased, IMPD said in a release.

The Marion County Coroner’s Office later identified the victim as Desmond Kurtz. His death was ruled a homicide.

IMPD homicide detectives are investigating but have not said what led to the shooting.

No arrests have been made and police have not identified any possible suspects.

The Marion County Coroner’s Office will release the man’s name after his family is notified.

Anyone with information was asked to contact Detective Christopher Winter at the IMPD Homicide Office at 317-327-3475 or email him at Christopher.Winter@indy.gov .
