Gavin Dasaur, 29, was shot and killed after a roadside confrontation on the evening of July 16, 2024, at South Emerson Avenue and Thompson Road in Indianapolis. Dasaur, who had married Cinthya Viviana Zamora 18 days earlier, was driving home with his wife when a dispute with a white Chevy pickup escalated into gunfire.

Witnesses and video show Dasaur exit his black Honda carrying a handgun, strike the pickup’s driver side door and shout at the driver. The pickup’s driver then extended a handgun from the window and fired multiple shots, leaving Dasaur in the middle of the road with at least one gunshot wound. He was taken to a hospital and later died.

The pickup driver stayed at the scene and was initially detained by Indianapolis Metropolitan Police. After consultation with the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office the driver was released; authorities said early findings indicate the shooter may have acted in self-defense. The investigation remained ongoing and the prosecutor’s office will decide whether to file charges.

If anyone witnessed the incident or has video or information about what led up to the confrontation, please share it with investigators.
