On the evening of November 26, 2024, police in Elkhart, Indiana, were called to the 700 block of Monroe Street and found 32-year-old White man Toby Fisher shot and unresponsive. He was pronounced dead at the scene; an autopsy later confirmed the cause of death was a gunshot wound and the death was ruled a homicide.
Investigators say the Elkhart County Homicide Unit uncovered a planned drug-related robbery that turned deadly. Court documents and messages recovered from Fisher’s phone indicate Ashley Seabolt arranged a drug deal with Sami Hussen involving methamphetamine and fentanyl, then instructed Fisher to rob Hussen and a female companion, telling Fisher to take phones, money, and the woman’s purse. Fisher messaged Seabolt back saying, I got a hammer now too, with hammer used as slang for a gun.
Surveillance and witness statements place Fisher, Seabolt, Hussen, the female witness, and another man, Stephonn Sutton, together in a white Honda Accord at the River Run Apartments. After Seabolt exited, Fisher displayed a gun and demanded money and the purse; shots were fired inside the car, the witness fled, and Sutton ran off with the purse.
Did anyone in the River Run Apartments area see the white Honda Accord or the people involved that night?
