Quiana Marie McBride, 43, was found dead from at least one gunshot wound inside her Indianapolis home on August 19, 2025. Police answered a call in the 3000 block of East 10th Street for a person having trouble breathing; an officer at the scene heard a gunshot and saw a man leaving a nearby residence. Despite medical attention, Quiana was pronounced dead at the scene.

The man observed leaving the home was identified as Quiana’s 40-year-old husband, Octavius Maurice McBride, who was taken into custody and arrested on a preliminary charge of murder. Court records show he had a 2020 arrest for strangulation and domestic battery involving a different person; that case was later dismissed. Children were reported to have been in the house at the time of the shooting.

The investigation is ongoing as family and friends mourn. If anyone has information about what happened that evening or knew the victim or family, please share what you know.
