A late July shooting on Indianapolis’ near north side ended the life of 26-year-old Mahlique Abrams. Officers from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department responded to the 3000 block of Boulevard Place on Sunday, July 28, after a report of a person shot. Abrams was found with gunshot wounds, taken to a nearby hospital, and later pronounced deceased; the Marion County Coroner’s Office identified him.

Police said they did not believe there was an ongoing threat to the public, but investigators had not released a clear timeline or motive for the shooting. No arrests had been announced as of late July 2024, and the case was one of several homicides contributing to community concern about gun violence.

Anyone who has information about what happened on Boulevard Place that night is asked to contact the IMPD Homicide Office or submit an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana.
