On the evening of August 31, 2016, an argument at a gas station on Indianapolis’s east side ended in a fatal shooting that killed 29-year-old Michael Johnson. Officers from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department found Johnson with gunshot wounds; he was treated but later died of his injuries.

Homicide detectives interviewed witnesses and collected evidence at the scene. Investigators identified a person of interest and made an arrest the same day. The individual taken into custody was named as Dewayne Harris, and the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office charged him with murder in connection with Johnson’s death.

The quick arrest was a major development in an otherwise sudden, violent disruption to a neighborhood. If anyone has information about what led to the argument or saw the events at the gas station that evening, please come forward.
