On March 6, 2022, 35-year-old Kerwin Pollard traveled to Indianapolis with his fiancée to sell clothing they had advertised on OfferUp. They first met with Julius Thomas and Carlos Bryant in a restaurant parking lot; Thomas later contacted Pollard to say he remained interested. Thomas and Bryant led Pollard and his fiancée to several locations and finally to the 1600 block of Ingram Street, where Antonio Wynn joined them.

During the final arrangements Pollard was shot twice in the abdomen. His fiancée was forced out of their vehicle at gunpoint while Thomas and Bryant took the car, the clothing, and other items; Wynn fled in his own vehicle. Officers found Pollard around 4:15 p.m.; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead. Investigators traced the suspects using the fiancée’s description of the vehicle, phone numbers used to set up the sale, and activity on stolen credit cards. All three men were later arrested and convicted for their roles in the robbery and Pollard’s murder.

Did anyone in Indianapolis see the parties meet that afternoon or recognize the vehicle described by the fiancée?
