Marshawn Frazier was 20 when he was fatally shot while walking in Indianapolis’ Butler-Tarkington neighborhood on August 24, 2015. The shooting occurred in the middle of the night and was one of many homicides the city saw that year.

Investigators were never able to identify or charge a suspect, and the case went cold amid reported lack of cooperation from potential witnesses in the neighborhood. The unresolved investigation left his family without answers and grieving a lost future.

In 2019 a separate incident reopened painful memories for the family when arrest warrants were mistakenly issued in Marshawn’s name after a fleeing driver in a Dodge Charger — still registered to Frazier — was misidentified from an old BMV photo. Prosecutors later dismissed the warrants, but the error intensified his mother’s distress.

If anyone knew Marshawn, saw him in Butler-Tarkington around August 24, 2015, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
