Two teenagers from Gary were found shot to death inside a parked car in Merrillville in the early morning hours of August 5, 2018. Eighteen-year-old Jamar Harris and 16-year-old Rickey J. Nelson were discovered in the parking lot of the Broadmoor Country Club Apartments; the Lake County Coroner’s Office ruled both deaths homicides.

Merrillville Police detectives canvassed the apartment complex and sought public help as the initial investigation unfolded, but public updates grew scarce. No arrests or suspect identifications have been announced, and the case is unsolved.

If anyone knew Jamar, Rickey, their movements that night, or saw anything in the Broadmoor Country Club Apartments area on August 5, 2018, please come forward with information.
