On May 29, 2009, officers were called to the 3501 block of Scarlet Oak Court on Indianapolis’ west side and found the body of 26-year-old Hispanic male Leonardo Marcedo-Sotelo. He sustained fatal injuries and the death was classified as a criminal homicide. Detectives canvassed the apartment-area neighborhood and processed the scene, but specific details about the cause of death were not widely publicized.

The investigation produced no publicly announced arrests or named suspects. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department has kept the case open as a cold file while seeking witnesses or tips that could clarify what happened that night on Scarlet Oak Court.

If anyone has information about Leonardo, the incident that night, or observed suspicious activity in that area on May 29, 2009, contact investigators who are still handling the case.
