On the morning of December 3, 2023, a dispute outside a large house party in the 500 block of South Park Avenue in Bloomington, Indiana, escalated into a shooting that killed 23-year-old Tyriq David Bridgwaters. Witnesses said three men had been denied entry after one was seen with a handgun tucked in his waistband; an argument and fight moved into a nearby alley where gunfire began. Bridgwaters was struck in the chest and died despite life-saving efforts by officers who responded. A 19-year-old man was also injured.

Police broadcast a suspect description and an Indiana State Police trooper stopped a vehicle with a passenger matching that description. The passenger was identified as 21-year-old Isaiah Ramos of Linton; a handgun was found in the vehicle and all three occupants were taken in for questioning. Ramos was arrested and preliminarily charged with murder and criminal recklessness.

Tyriq Bridgwaters was a Bloomington resident known as a talented athlete who had won a national AAU Junior Olympics championship in shot put and discus, and was also a musician and poet. Does anyone have information about the night of December 3, 2023, or knew Tyriq that could help this case?
