Jonathan Malk, 66, was one of four people shot at the Stratford Commons Apartments on Oakland Avenue in Elkhart on the morning of July 31, 2019. Malk, a former Elkhart resident visiting from Belen, New Mexico on business, was found dead after police were dispatched at about 9:04 a.m. Officers discovered a woman with a serious gunshot wound to the chest and, during a search of the building, located three other people who had suffered fatal gunshot wounds.

Authorities later identified the three deceased as Jon Walter Malk, 66; Gail Shields, 66; and Lawrence Faco, 76. The Elkhart County Homicide Unit led the investigation and identified Faco as the suspected shooter believed to have killed Malk and Shields and wounded the surviving woman. With the suspected shooter also found dead at the scene, investigators reported no ongoing threat to the public.

Does anyone have information about Malk’s visit to Elkhart or about events at Stratford Commons that morning?
