Police: 2 injured in shooting at south side strip club

Police say a 28-year-old man is in stable condition and another man who was hurt in the shooting is in good condition.

INDIANAPOLIS — Two men were injured in a shooting at a strip club on the south side of Indianapolis on Sunday, police said. 

Officers were called to a shooting at Club Onyx, located at 4444 S. Harding Street near Interstate 465 and Bluff Road, at around 4:45 a.m.

They arrived to find a 28-year-old man who had been shot. The man, who police believe to be their primary suspect, was taken to Eskenazi Hospital and was listed in stable condition. His injuries aren't believed to be life-threatening and, as of late Sunday afternoon, he was still at the hospital receiving medical treatment. 

Not long after police arrived at the club, a second man who had been shot arrived at the St. Vincent Immediate Care Center on South Emerson Avenue. Police said that man was in good condition and believe he was injured in the same shooting as the suspect. 

Detectives said the suspect returned to the club not long after being kicked out, and fired a gun multiple times indiscriminately into the club. An armed security guard shot back at the suspect, hitting him. 

Several cars were also struck by gunfire during the exchange, IMPD said.

Detectives are still trying to figure out how the man who showed up at St. Vincent Immediate Care received his injury. 

IMPD said witnesses stayed on scene and cooperated with officers and detectives. IMPD aggravated assault detectives are working to determine if anyone else may have been involved in the shooting. 

Anyone with information about this shooting is being asked to contact the IMPD aggravated assault unit at 317-327-3475 or call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 317-262-TIPS.
