Codi Alan McCann, 22, was fatally shot on December 6, 2016, behind a bar on East State Boulevard in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The shooting followed an altercation in the establishment’s parking lot; reports described the incident as tied to a drug deal that went wrong. McCann was a 2012 graduate of Northrop High School, studied in the Culinary Arts Program at Ivy Tech College, worked for UPS, and enjoyed basketball. Family and friends remembered him as good-hearted, funny, willing to help others and protective of his friends.

An arrest was made in September 2018 in connection with the case. McCann’s mother later co-founded a local group to support families of violence victims. What details about that night or the people involved might still help clarify what happened?
