Charles D. Montgomery, 42, was shot to death on the night of July 5, 2016, on the 5400 block of Fillmore Street in Merrillville, Indiana. Multiple gunshots were reported; officers found Montgomery with several gunshot wounds and he was pronounced dead at the scene at 12:15 a.m. on July 6. The Lake County Coroner’s Office ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators with the Merrillville Police Department examined Montgomery’s background during the inquiry, noting a prior federal indictment in 2011 for crack cocaine distribution and treating potential links to his past as one avenue of the probe. Despite those efforts, no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced, and the investigation has gone cold.

Anyone who lived in the area or who may have been on Fillmore Street that night and has information is asked to come forward.
