An argument over cutting in line at a Clark gas station on West 5th Avenue in Gary, Indiana, on June 14, 2021, ended with 31-year-old Ivana Jenkins shot during a confrontation and later pronounced dead at Methodist Hospital. Surveillance footage shows the dispute began inside the station when two men attempted to cut in line, escalated to a verbal fight, and moved outside. One man slapped Jenkins, the second pistol-whipped her, and during the struggle one of the assailants fired a gun.

Investigators identified two suspects as Daniel L. Malone, 19, of Lafayette, and Terry Thomas, 23, of Gary; both were charged with murder and battery by means of a deadly weapon. Court documents state Jenkins appeared to have pulled a pendant from one of the suspects during the altercation. Police matched the suspects from prior records; Malone was arrested in March of the following year and Thomas was taken into custody in July after the shooting.

If anyone witnessed the confrontation at the gas station or has information about what happened that day, please share what you know.
