ANDERSON, Ind. — One person was badly injured in a shooting Wednesday afternoon at an Anderson convenience store.
An Anderson Police spokesperson said officers were called to the Conoco gas station at 1002 Nichol Avenue around 5:45 p.m.. They found a man inside the store suffering from a gunshot wound.
The victim, identified by Anderson PD as Aundre Nell Qua Maine Diamond, 28, of Indianapolis, remains in intensive care in serious condition at an Indianapolis hospital.
The police spokesperson said a preliminary investigation indicates a male suspect entered the store and "immediately began shooting at the victim."
The suspect fled in a vehicle, but police did not provide a description. They have been following multiple leads in the case, however.
In surveillance video 13News obtained, you can see the suspect standing in the doorway and appears to be yelling at someone. He then gets into a black Buick SUV and drives away.
About two minutes later, the victim walks into the store and heads down an aisle. That’s when the suspect starts to follow him.
As soon as the victim turns the corner, the video shows the suspect pulling out a gun and firing it.
On Thursday, police said a suspect in the shooting was in custody.
A police department spokesperson said 33-year-old Bernard M. Stidhum was located when officers served a search warrant at a home.
The investigation is ongoing, police said.
