Woman is dead after fight near bar on northwest side

Indianapolis, Indiana — After being shot near a bar on the northwest side of Indianapolis, a woman is dead.

According to The Indianapolis, Metropolitan Police Department said it happened around 1:30 a.m. in the 4700 block of Century Plaza Road. That’s a business plaza near Lafayette and Georgetown roads.

Upon arrival, IMPD officers found the woman shot multiple times. Medics rushed her to a hospital but she did not survive.

According to police, there was some kind of fight and they’re not sure if the shooting happened inside or outside a business.

“Solving problems by shooting and stabbing each other is not the answer,” IMPD Captain Don Weilhammer said. “There are better ways to work it out. We’ve got a better city than that.”

Right now, the police don’t have a person of interest.

According to officers, it is very early in the investigation.
