TreVon Riggins was 15 when he was shot and killed on the evening of Saturday, March 28, 2026, near a playground at an apartment complex in the 3900 block of Rue Rebelais in Indianapolis, near East 56th Street and Binford Boulevard. First responders found him in critical condition; he was taken to a nearby hospital and later died. The Marion County Coroner’s Office later confirmed his identity.

Family and friends remember TreVon as funny, goofy and a natural entertainer who had recently been making positive changes. His grandfather, Ottis Riggins, said TreVon was trying to turn his life around, improving his grades and helping with work. He had been involved with a youth mentorship and entrepreneurship program called NEW B.O.Y. and was working toward starting his own business.

Police believe the shooting was targeted. As of early April 2026 the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department was investigating and had not released updates about suspects or arrests. If anyone knew TreVon, saw activity near Rue Rebelais on March 28, or has information that could help the investigation, please come forward.
