Clarence Wade Havard III, known as Wade, was 32 when he was found shot along Bernard Avenue in the Butler-Tarkington neighborhood on the evening of Wednesday, August 26, 2015. An employee of the City of Indianapolis, he was remembered as a man full of life; his death devastated family and community.

Wade’s killing deepened an already devastating pattern for his family: he was one of three sons, out of seven children, killed by gun violence in Indianapolis. His brother Clarence Jr. was murdered in 2003 in an unsolved case, and another brother, Charles, was killed in 2004 in a case that produced an arrest. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department investigated Wade’s death, but by late 2016 it remained one of four unsolved Butler-Tarkington homicides from 2015 and no arrests or public suspect identifications had been made.

If anyone knew Wade, saw activity on Bernard Avenue that night, or has information that could help the family find answers, please come forward.
