Erin Michele Mills, 34, was fatally shot on June 11, 2017, in an apparent attempted robbery at the Southport Crossing apartment complex on Indianapolis’ south side. Mills, a United States Army veteran, had just returned from a trip and was unloading her car when an armed assailant confronted her. Her fiancé was wounded inside their shared apartment during the incident.

Described as having a beaming smile and a bubbly personality, Mills had hoped to become a teacher and was remembered for her love of country and family. Family, friends, and community members held a memorial that included releasing balloons in tribute to her service. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department launched the investigation, but there have been no public announcements of arrests or identified suspects as of this account.

If anyone knew Erin, was in the Southport Crossing area that morning, or has information about the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
