Shortly before 1 a.m. on April 16, 2024, Indianapolis police responded to gunfire at an apartment in the 2100 block of North Ritter Avenue in the Rolland Manor Apartments. Officers found three men with gunshot wounds; two were pronounced dead at the scene. The Marion County Coroner’s Office identified one of the deceased as David Antron Rogers, 43, and ruled both deaths homicides. The other man who died was 38-year-old Michael A. Beck Jr. A third victim was taken to hospital in critical condition and later reported stable. Two children were present in the apartment during the shooting but were not physically harmed.

Detectives have explored whether the shooting may have been an act of self-defense and say all individuals involved have been accounted for. No arrests have been announced and the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department continues to investigate. Does anyone have information about what led to the altercation that night or who was present in the apartment?
