On the evening of May 5, 2023, 26-year-old Jared Wininger was found shot to death in his Pendleton home in the 5700 block of South State Road 67. A roommate discovered him unresponsive and police confirmed he had sustained a fatal gunshot wound and was deceased at the scene.

Investigators canvassed the area and asked residents and businesses along the stretch of State Road 67 to review security camera footage for signs of reckless driving or people on foot during the time of the killing. The inquiry later focused on Courtney Radford of Indianapolis after detectives say DNA evidence and surveillance footage connected him to the scene; Radford reportedly admitted involvement when questioned and police said the motive was an attempted robbery. Two years after the killing, authorities arrested Radford for his role in the murder.

If anyone has information about Jared, his routine, or the events around May 5, 2023, contact investigators.
