Castleton Square Mall shooting

[bobzilla]

I never went to that one, so I have no frame of reference, but the one on the southside was a great store. Much better than Gander Mountain, Dick's, etc..

Yea the old galyans were much better. The original was amazing.

We moved here in Summer '68 I remember it as a cornfield. Looks like 465 was completed by '72. The first store to open was Sears in August '72.

Anyone remember those little torches in road construction that looked like little black bombs? When I was a kid that's what I thought they were.

I seem to remember road 100 as being Shadeland Ave??

US 52 And the End Of SR 100

I have discussed numerous times that history of one of the most well known state roads in Indiana…State Road 100. If you would like to see the first post I did on the subject, check out &#822…

Remember to torches very well.

I miss the old Sears stores...with real Craftsman tools.

I quite going to malls when people became too stupid to pull their pants up over their ass.

That’s what we always called it plus I found this in the wiki

It turned west at Castleton, in northeastern Marion County, following 82nd Street. Between State Road 37A(Allisonville Rd) and the distinctive bridge over the West Fork of the White Riverjust east of State Road 431(Keystone Ave), it became 86th Street. It continued on west along 86th to the far-northwest side of Marion County, where it connected to US 52 at Trader's Point in Boone County.

Arrest warrant issued for suspect in Castleton mall shooting

INDIANAPOLIS — Felony charges have been filed and a warrant has been issued for the arrest of a man police said was involved in a deadly shooting of a teenager outside the Castleton Square Mall. Ac…

According to the article, he got out of the vehicle, chased and fired at the surviving victim.

Teens protecting themselves with guns need to learn from someone what they can do, and can't do, if they reasonably believe they're facing a threat of force.

Yikes. I remember reading a bit about this when it first happened and thinking it was a terrible mistake, absolutely tragic, but possibly a good shoot. No more.

In case anyone is curious, $12K will secure his release.....from mycase.in.gov...

I just realized Fox news is trying this case in the court of public opinion.

From the article.
“He did not see either male with anything in their hands, and neither male said anything.”
"A firearm with an extended magazine was found in the trunk of Clyde’s vehicle,"

IMPD said Johnson told them he feared the men approaching the car because he had been a witness to a previous, unrelated homicide. He told police that he was “being hunted”.

This, 19 years old, 'stendo in the trunk...think Clyde is living "the life" and maybe that's why he's a bit on edge and prone to overreaction? Guess he didn't get his Glock switch yet.

Just idly speculating. Anyway, if there's evidence to support the claim that he not just fired out of the car but got out and ran the guy down and shot him up some more, he ain't getting acquittal on anything.

 

[Sigblitz]

From what I understand reading the thread, he witnessed a murder. He thought 2 guys found him in the back seat of his friends car and were going to 'take him out'. He shot at them, chased the runner and maimed him so the police can pick him up, and he would finally be safe.

No purple intended. He was probably in fear for his life. Someone was killed for trying to get in the wrong car. Some people think he gets a pass. Reasonable fear of eminent threat of force. Based on the back story, maybe that element is there. Someone was shot trying to get away from him.

Fox59 is not Fox News. They are the local Fox station affiliate, but owned by a completely different company called Nexstar Media Group. When I worked there they were owned by Tribune Media which went bankrupt and then merged with Nexstar.
