Harpreet Singh, 28, of Avon, was reported missing after he left for a grocery run on April 23, 2022, and did not return. Family concern sparked a search that ended in tragedy when a body was found in a parked vehicle on Indianapolis’ far west side.The discovery came on May 2, 2022, when a tow truck driver preparing to remove a black Toyota Highlander in the 6400 block of Jaguar Place noticed a foul odor. Police who responded identified the body as Singh; investigators said he had sustained traumatic injuries later confirmed to be gunshot wounds.

Witnesses told police they saw a tall, thin man exit Singh’s vehicle and get into another car that left the scene.Few days after the body was found, 21-year-old Jayvawn Birdsong was arrested and charged preliminarily with reckless homicide and also charged with carrying a handgun without a license and prostitution. Motive and the full circumstances of the killing have not been released.

Did anyone in the area see that Highlander or notice suspicious activity around Jaguar Place on April 23 or in the days after?
