Timothy Dwayne Moore, 30, was found dead in a vehicle in the 1700 block of Martin Luther King Drive in Gary, Indiana, on February 19, 2021. His car had struck a parked vehicle in an apartment complex lot; Moore was discovered slumped over inside with a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Lake County Coroner’s Office.

A native of Gary and a former Lew Wallace High School basketball standout, Moore was remembered as a father, son, and brother whose friends described him as kind and genuine. The Lake County Metro Homicide unit took over the investigation after a witness reported hearing gunshots earlier that evening, though it was unclear whether those sounds were connected. No arrests had been reported and the investigation remained ongoing.

If anyone has information about Moore’s shooting or was in the area that night, please come forward to assist the case.
