Woman Tells Police She Opened Fire As Man Broke In

Indianapolis Metro police said a homeowner fatally shot a burglar Saturday night at an apartment in the 2100 block of Lake Terrace Drive.

Officers found the man laying the hallway of the apartment building after they were called there at about 9:30 p.m.

A woman in the apartment told officers she shot the man as he broke into her apartment. The man's identity was not immediately released.

A second person, with the man who was shot, fled on foot immediately after the shooting. That man was described as black, heavyset, wearing a red shirt and black hoodie. The woman told police he was armed with a handgun.

Police tracked the man's footprints in the snow to the 2100 block of North Mitthoeffer Road before they lost the tracks.

The Marion County Prosecutor's Office will review the case to determine if any charges are warranted
