Phyllis Ann Anderson, 64, was fatally shot inside her apartment at the Arlington Green complex in the 6000 block of East 21st Street in Indianapolis on Wednesday afternoon, September 20, 2017. She lived alone but cared for her 92-year-old mother in an adjacent unit. Family members describe her as devoted to her relatives, a homemaker who enjoyed singing and playing bingo, a Crispus Attucks High School graduate who later worked as a substitute teacher after training at Lockyear College.

Police identified Phyllis’s 22-year-old granddaughter, Kaycee Anderson, as the sole suspect and say the shooting followed a family dispute earlier that day. Kaycee fled in a silver Chevy Cobalt and was taken into custody about three hours later near 56th Street and Post Road in the Fort Benjamin Harrison area of Lawrence. The family continues to mourn and struggles to understand what happened.

If anyone knew Phyllis or has information about the dispute that led to her death, please share what you know.
