On the evening of January 20, 2021, a workplace dispute at an insulation manufacturing plant in Indianapolis turned deadly. Justin Laster, a 42-year-old Black man, was working at PSC Industries on the city’s east side when a fight with a coworker escalated into gunfire just before 7 p.m. First responders found Laster inside the plant with multiple gunshot wounds; the Marion County Coroner’s Office later confirmed those wounds caused his death.

The shooter fled the scene but was later identified as Laster’s coworker Jacob Spivey-Martin. Police interviewed multiple employees who were present during the incident. Spivey-Martin was arrested and charged with murder in Laster’s death; court proceedings resulted in a guilty but mentally ill finding for murder.

If anyone worked at PSC Industries or witnessed the incident and has additional information, please come forward.
