INDIANAPOLIS — An investigation is underway after one man died and two were injured in a shooting on Indianapolis' southeast side Wednesday evening.
Just before 8 p.m. on Wednesday, June 1, IMPD officers responded to the 5100 block of Emerson Village Drive, near the intersection of Emerson Avenue and Shelbyville Road, for a report of a person shot.
Officers located a man who had been shot. He was taken to a local hospital in stable condition.
Police also responded to a report of a walk-in person shot at St. Francis Hospital. That man was last listed in serious but stable condition, IMPD said early Thursday.
A third man who had been shot arrived at Community South Hospital. He was pronounced dead by medical staff at the hospital.
The Marion County Coroner's Office identified the deceased as 22-year-old Harold Bennett and ruled his death a homicide due to a gunshot wound.
