INDIANAPOLIS — A person was fatally shot on the north side of Indianapolis Wednesday morning, according to police.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department says officers were dispatched to investigate a shots fired incident in the 6700 block of Woodmere Circle in the Delaware Trails area, west of Hoover Road, around 5:41 a.m.

They arrived and located a person suffering a gunshot wound.

IMPD originally reported their condition as “awake and breathing,” though the person died sometime after arriving at a hospital.

According to Public Information Officer Drew Brown, the person who called police was the shooter in the incident.

He told police that two masked individuals approached him before shots were fired. The shooter is cooperating with law enforcement, police said.

Another person was detained on scene; IMPD did not identify or state their role in the incident.

This is a developing story.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Officers with an FBI violent crimes task force on Tuesday arrested a 21-year-old man in connection with a May 28 shooting that injured a boy and a man, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said in a media notification.

The name of the arrested man and his jail booking photo were not released due to an ongoing investigation, IMPD said.

The names and ages of the two people who were shot have not been publicly shared.

As News 8 previously reported, IMPD officers responded about 5:20 p.m. May 28 to a report of a person shot in the 3100 block of Baltimore Terrace in Indianapolis. That’s at The Martindale apartments off East 30th Street, northeast of downtown Indianapolis, and just northwest of the intersection of East 30th Street and North Keystone Avenue.

The boy and man shot were taken to hospitals by Indianapolis Emergency Medical Services in stable but serious condition.

An IMPD report said a handgun was used in the aggravated assault.

IMPD said the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office will make the final charging decision in the case.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Scattered storms remain possible over the coming days. Some could be strong with heavy rain and gusty winds.  Less humid air returns for a few days starting Friday. 

TUESDAY EVENING/NIGHT:

The warm and humid air mass in place will support a continuing chance of showers & storms. Not everyone will get one… but if a storm forms it does have the potential to produce torrential rainfall, gusty winds, and perhaps some hail. Muggy lows in the lower 70s can be expected again. 

WEDNESDAY:

Some morning showers, storms, and clouds are possible but the afternoon is looking like it’ll be downright sultry with highs around 90 and heat indices near 100. Southwesterly breezes 10-20 will ease the burden a bit, but be sure to take extra steps to stay cool and hydrated.  The 30 year average date of the first 90 in Indianapolis is June 19th.  

Model data suggest a storm complex or two may graze northern Indiana in the later part of the afternoon and evening. It’s too early to tell if this will affect Central Indiana or not.  

WEDNESDAY NIGHT:

Warm and very humid conditions stick around. Look for another night with lows in the 70s.  Once again, some data suggest that a batch of gusty storms could roll across Northern Indiana.  That will be something to watch.

THURSDAY:

Warm, breezy, and very humid conditions hang around one more day.  Highs near 90 with heat indices around 100 appear likely.  While a shower or storm could pop anytime in the muggy air, most of the daylight hours should remain dry.  

A cold front will push in from the west during the evening and overnight hours.  This front will likely spark a line of strong to severe storms in Illinois.  These storms will move towards Central Indiana, but they may be in a weakening phase prior to arrival here. We’ll just have to watching things evolve.  The main severe threat in this setup would be damaging wind gusts it appears. 

FRIDAY:

After an early day rain & storm chance, the majority of the day should be pretty nice with partly cloudy skies, warm highs in the 80s, but lower humidity levels.  Any outdoor plans for Friday evening look great!

WEEKEND:

The pick day will be Saturday with plentiful sunshine, warmer temperatures, light winds, and reasonably dry air for a change.  Humidity increases again for Sunday and that will lead to another chance of scattered rain & storms.
