On March 5, 2016, 19-year-old Dazjuan Lyle was shot and killed in the 600 block of North Exeter Avenue in Indianapolis. Investigators have said they believe the shooting was motivated by an attempted robbery. Lyle was found deceased at the scene.

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department detectives identified two suspects and moved to arrest them in June. On June 7, 2016, arrest warrants were served for 19-year-olds Deiontae Evans and Devaughn Farmer. Both men were taken into custody on preliminary charges of Murder, Attempted Murder, and Robbery. During Farmer’s arrest, a search warrant executed at a residence in the 3900 block of Rue Renoir recovered two handguns, a large amount of marijuana, and a substantial sum of cash.

Anyone with information about the shooting or who knew Dazjuan’s movements that night is asked to come forward.
