What was reported
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police made a third arrest on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, in connection with a fatal shooting at the Glick Colonial Square apartments in the 5700 block of Renn Lane on Indianapolis' northwest side, according to WRTV's report[1]. The shooting happened at about 7:45 p.m. on Sunday, May 24, 2026, near 46th Street and Moller Road.
WRTV and WIBC's report[2] state that the person killed was a teenager. Investigators say a gun sale turned into a robbery, WRTV reported. Pike Township Fire Department medics responded to the scene.
Two people were arrested in late August, and a third was taken into custody on October 14, according to WRTV and WIBC. All three face murder, armed robbery and firearms charges. The outlets report different ages for two of the people charged, so those disputed ages are not included here. Charges are allegations, and anyone charged is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. The investigation is ongoing.
What families can do next
When a family loses someone to violence, bills, official records and insurance questions can arrive at the same time. Keep copies of every bill, receipt and document you receive from police, the coroner or victim services. A practical consultation document checklist can help you organize records.
Ask the investigating agency how and when reports may be requested. Write down the names of the detectives and victim advocates you speak with. Indiana's crime victim compensation program and local victim advocates may be able to help with some expenses.
Be careful about signing documents or giving an insurance company a recorded statement before you understand your options. This guide explains common concerns when an insurance adjuster requests a recorded statement or medical release.
Why the location matters
The shooting happened at an apartment complex on Renn Lane in Indianapolis, in Marion County. Location usually affects which county's courts would hear a civil case and which law enforcement agency investigates. Here, IMPD is the investigating agency.
A criminal case and a civil claim are separate. When a death occurs on someone else's property, questions can arise about what the owner knew and what security measures were in place. No source cited here has reported a security problem at this apartment complex. General information about these issues is available in the firm's guide to Indiana negligent security claims.
Indiana's wrongful death statutes, including Ind. Code 34-23-1-1 and, for the death of a child, Ind. Code 34-23-2-1, identify who may bring a claim. Most injury and wrongful death claims must be filed within two years under Ind. Code 34-11-2-4. Under Ind. Code 34-51-2-6, Indiana divides fault among those responsible and bars recovery for a person whose fault is greater than 50 percent. These general rules do not establish liability in this incident.
