On the afternoon of August 5, 2019, gunfire broke out at Lafayette Road and Tibbs Avenue in Indianapolis. Miles Cross, 26, and a woman named Shainita Caffey were found inside their vehicle with critical gunshot wounds and later died at a hospital. Witnesses said a man approached the victims’ car from behind and opened fire, striking Cross in the head; Caffey tried to flee and was pursued and shot multiple times. She was reportedly on a phone call at the time and mentioned having a daughter before the call ended. A witness recorded the shooter’s escape vehicle license plate, which led investigators to Dwayne Lucas.

Surveillance footage placed Lucas in the identified car and showed the vehicle tailing the victims’ car shortly before the shooting. Lucas was arrested, tried, and a jury found him guilty of two counts of murder. On August 6, 2021, he received concurrent sentences of up to 65 years for each count. Another man, Terrell Redd, was charged with driving the getaway car, with his trial set for September 2021.

Are there witnesses or anyone with information about that afternoon at Lafayette Road and Tibbs Avenue who can help fill in details?
