Ramon D. Carver, 26, was killed in Indianapolis on March 10, 2016. Police were called that Thursday night to the far east side near the Bavarian Village Apartments in the 3000 block of Bavarian East Drive after shots were reported. Carver was found in the back seat of a vehicle with at least one gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene. Detectives believed the shooting may have begun elsewhere inside the apartment complex before he collapsed in the car.

Carver was a father, and family members described him as closely tied to everyday family life; they announced services and burial arrangements as they grieved. Within days police publicly identified a suspect, Marcus Crowdus, 23, of Indianapolis, and asked the public and Crime Stoppers for tips, providing a physical description and seeking sightings. If anyone knew Ramon, his movements that night, or saw Marcus Crowdus in the area, please share what you know.
