In the early morning hours of a November Saturday in 2017, firefighters responding to a house fire on Barr Drive in Indianapolis found the body of 73-year-old Stephen Brockmann, a man who had lived on that street for about 30 years. A U.S. Air Force veteran and a longtime member of Trinity Episcopal Church, he served as an usher and was an accomplished organist who played for several congregations around the city.

Although the fire was first thought to be the cause of death, the Marion County Coroner later ruled Brockmann’s death a probable homicide. Investigators determined he had been shot before the blaze was set, and the fire appeared to have been used to conceal the killing. Friends remembered him as kind and generous, and some said neighborhood youth sometimes asked him for money.

No public information about suspects or arrests has been released. If anyone knew Stephen, his routines, or saw anything unusual on Barr Drive that November morning in 2017, please share what is known.
