Jacob Arnett was 20 when he was shot and killed in Indianapolis on the evening of February 2, 2017. Police responded to a scene of violence that night; Arnett was found shot and later pronounced dead. The investigation identified two teenage suspects and a SWAT standoff led to the arrest of both individuals believed to be involved.

Authorities determined Arnett was the victim of murder and robbery. One of the suspects, Jalen Thomas, was later convicted and, in November 2018, received a 55-year sentence for his role in the murder and robbery of Jacob Arnett. A second teen was arrested during the same operation; the case record focuses on Thomas’s prosecution.

Did anyone who knew Jacob or who was in that neighborhood on February 2, 2017, see or hear anything that might help fill gaps in the timeline?
