On the evening of February 12, 2016, 35-year-old Patrick Brown was shot and killed in his apartment on South Lynhurst Drive in Indianapolis, Indiana. Emergency responders found Brown with a gunshot wound to the chest; he was taken to a nearby hospital and died of his injuries. A woman present, Cecelia ’Cece’ Land, Brown’s ex-girlfriend, was also shot and survived critical injuries.

Authorities arrested 26-year-old Rebecca Lawson at the scene after she called 911 and surrendered. Investigators reported Lawson had driven to Brown’s apartment to retrieve belongings, became upset when she saw Land’s vehicle, and an altercation followed during which Lawson shot both Brown and Land. Friends described Lawson as having been obsessive during her past relationship with Brown. Lawson was charged with murder and attempted murder; she claimed self-defense at trial.

Does anyone have information about Patrick Brown’s life in Indianapolis or about the events at the apartment that night?
