On April 17, 2022, a fatal shooting happened at an apartment complex on West Mill Road in Evansville, Indiana. Officers found a chaotic scene after responding to reports of a disturbance; two men had exchanged gunfire during a physical confrontation.

The victims were 50-year-old Thomas R. James and 43-year-old Vito Acardo Allen. Emergency responders pronounced Allen dead at the scene; James was taken to a hospital with critical injuries and later died. Investigators determined the incident stemmed from a mutual combat situation in which both men assaulted one another before firearms were used.

Because both people involved died, police said they were not seeking other suspects and no arrests were made. Did anyone in the community know either man or witness what led up to that confrontation?
