Shooting on north side leaves one dead, one injured
UPDATE: The Marion County Coroner’s Office identified the decedent late Monday as Maurice Nash, 50
ORIGINAL STORY: One man was killed and another injured after a shooting Sunday afternoon on the city's north side.
Indianapolis police located the two men after responding to a report of a person shot near the 800 block of Eugene Street, near Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and 30th streets, at about 4:30 p.m. The surviving victim was taken to Eskenazi Hospital in stable condition, police said.
About an hour after the shooting, the deceased man was lying on the sidewalk next to a white SUV. Police said the shooting occurred outside and does not appear to be a random act.
The men were found near vacant homes.
Mark Hurt, 42, who lives nearby, said he was walking to the nearby Family Dollar when he heard 10 to 12 shots.
Earlier in the afternoon, two people were injured in a shooting on the west side of Indianapolis in the 3600 block of St. Thomas Lane, near 38th Street and Dandy Trail. Police said one person was taken to the hospital in critical condition, while the other was stable.
