On the afternoon of January 22, 2021, 29-year-old Troy Newsome was shot and killed in the 4900 block of Jefferson Street in Gary, Indiana. First responders found Newsome unresponsive in the street with multiple gunshot wounds; the Lake County Coroner pronounced his death a homicide.

Witnesses and preliminary evidence pointed to a brown SUV, later believed to be a Chevy Trailblazer, that pulled up alongside Newsome before shots were fired and then sped away. The Gary Police Department and the Lake County Metro Homicide Unit released surveillance footage of the vehicle and asked the public for information, including anonymous tips.

Despite that footage and public appeals, no arrests or suspect identifications have been announced and the vehicle and its occupants remain at large. Does anyone in the Gary area recognize the brown SUV or have details that could help bring answers to Troy’s family?
