INDIANAPOLIS — IMPD has released an edited video detailing events it said led up to officers shooting and killing a man in March.
Shortly before 7:30 p.m. March 31, IMPD officers responded to a report of a person firing shots in the air in the 3300 block of Georgetown Road, near West 34th Street. Witnesses gave officers a description of the man and the car he was driving, police said, and officers attempted to stop the suspect before a "brief pursuit."
That chase ended roughly a half-mile away in the 3200 block of Winton Avenue. That's when police said the driver, Luis Duran-Ruano, came to a stop outside a home and got out of the car. That's when police said Duran-Ruano pulled a gun and pointed it at his own head.

An officer began talking with Duran-Ruano, and SWAT Team members were called to the scene. Officers can be heard in the video telling Duran-Ruano they would take him to the hospital and to put the gun down.
After roughly an hour, Duran-Ruano left the porch of the home and began walking south. SWAT officers then used "less lethal launchers." IMPD said Duran-Ruano then fired shots and three officers returned fire, striking the man.

Duran-Ruano was taken to Eskenazi Hospital, where he later died. No officers or others involved were injured.
IMPD shared a photo of a gun the department said was located at the scene.
