INDIANAPOLIS — A 17-year-old boy is now charged for his alleged role in a deadly shooting in March on the east side of Indianapolis.
According to IMPD, around 1 a.m. on March 28, officers responded to the 2200 block of Gable Drive, near 21st Street and Mitthoefer Road, on a report of a person shot. Officers arrived and found 25-year-old Addam Hart with a gunshot wound. He was transported to Eskenazi Hospital in critical condition but later died from his injuries.
Homicide detectives began their investigation and ruled Hart's death a homicide.
According to court documents, Hart's mother heard popping noises while watching TV in bed and called for him. As he ran up the stairs, she told police she then heard more popping noises and Hart fell to the ground outside her room with a gunshot wound to his head.
Court documents say police found more than 30 bullet holes in the house, as well as 31 shell casings on the street and sidewalk.
According to court documents, a 5-year-old was lying in bed nearby where Hart was shot and 12 shots had gone through that child's window.
The day after Hart's shooting, police in Brownsburg were called to a home where a woman said someone drove by her home and shot up her car. She told police she believed the shooter may have been with her son's ex-girlfriend. Police said the son told them his ex-girlfriend had texted that she was going to come pick him up. He said she arrived with other teenagers in the car, including two wearing ski masks. They tried to convince him to get in the car, but he refused. He said that after he went inside, he heard the gunfire. When police spoke to the ex-girlfriend, she allegedly told them 17-year-old Tyler Gibson was the one that shot at the car, and 16-year-old Savannah Allen was his girlfriend. Police learned the car Allen used matched the description of the car in Hart's deadly shooting.

As IMPD officer's investigated Hart's death, they learned a person who used to live at that house was recently charged with sexual misconduct with a minor and child exploitation. That person also had a rape charge in Marion County and a gun charge in Anderson. That man was allegedly accused by one of Allen's friends.
IMPD stopped and arrested Gibson and Allen in Indianapolis on May 2. When police searched an SUV they had seen Gibson in, they found a gun and ammunition matching what was used in Hart's deadly shooting.
When questioned by police, court documents allege Allen told them Gibson and another male shot up the home where Hart was killed.
Allen said the other male got into the car and said, "I think I got him. I saw a kid drop down in the window.”
When searching Gibson's phone, police found a screenshot of the Citizens app that shows a shooting on Gable Drive and a man unresponsive after being shot.
On May 7, the Marion County Prosecutor's Office charged Allen as an adult with murder. Gibson was charged on May 21 with murder and dangerous possession of a firearm.
Gibson had his initial court hearing May 23. The judge appointed him a public defender, and he entered a not guilty plea. His next court appearance is a status conference scheduled for June 3.
13News asked IMPD if the second male Allen said was involved in the shooting has been arrested. IMPD responded saying: "No additional arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing."
