On the afternoon of April 8, 2012, 30-year-old William Antwuan Newton was driving a Dodge Charger south on Indianapolis Avenue in Indianapolis when his car stopped at the intersection with 28th Street and was ambushed. Witnesses reported as many as ten gunshots fired from another vehicle. Newton was struck multiple times, tried to drive away, and the Charger crashed into a nearby house; a passenger suffered only minor injuries while Newton died of his wounds.

Investigators collected witness descriptions of a suspect vehicle seen fleeing the scene — described as a silver or gray Ford Fusion that may have carried Illinois or New York plates — and released that information publicly. Newton’s wife Taeshima and their daughter survived him; funeral services were held at Friendship Missionary Baptist Church and he was buried at Crown Hill Cemetery.

Did anyone in Indianapolis remember seeing a silver or gray Ford Fusion near Indianapolis Avenue and 28th Street that afternoon or have other information about the shooting?
