On August 5, 2019, 25-year-old Shainita Nicole Maggie Caffey and 26-year-old Miles Cross were found with gunshot wounds in their vehicle near Lafayette Road and Tibbs Avenue in Indianapolis. Both were taken to a hospital in critical condition and died of their injuries. Parts of the attack were captured on a live phone call Caffey was making to a utility company; during the call she reportedly pleaded for her life and mentioned having a daughter before being shot multiple times.

Witnesses described a man, later identified as Dwayne Lucas, approaching the victims’ car and shooting Cross in the head. Caffey attempted to flee, fell with her hands up, and was shot at close range. An alert witness recorded the getaway vehicle’s license plate, leading investigators to Lucas’s residence. Surveillance video, cell-phone location data, eyewitness accounts and fingerprints on the victims’ car tied Lucas to the scene. Lucas and another man, 31-year-old Terrell Redd, were arrested; Lucas was convicted on two counts of murder in July 2021 and received consecutive 60-year terms. Redd was accused of driving the getaway car and his trial was scheduled for September 2021.
