Keenan Eugene Poe Jr, 26, was found dead the morning of August 2, 2026, on the east side of Indianapolis. A passerby discovered his body between two residences in the 3400 block of North Emerson Avenue just after 6:30 a.m.; Indianapolis Metropolitan Police officers pronounced him dead at the scene after he sustained multiple gunshot wounds. Investigators recovered 9mm shell casings and a semi-automatic handgun near his body.

Detectives were told Keenan had been with his 31-year-old brother, Michael Oren, the night before and that the brothers had been arguing in the days leading up to the shooting. Court documents allege Oren had pulled a gun on Keenan twice in prior confrontations. Oren reportedly fled to Kentucky after the shooting but surrendered the next day with a family member and was arrested and charged with murder. Prosecutors cited a handgun that matched the shell casings and bloodstains found in Oren’s car; Oren has said the shooting was an accident during a struggle over the weapon.

The family is left grieving as the case proceeds through the Marion County court system. Does anyone have information about Keenan, Michael Oren, or what happened that night?
