INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Homicide detectives are searching for answers after a man was shot and killed overnight on the city’s east side.

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were dispatched around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday to a shooting in a neighborhood Catalina Drive and Mitthoeffer Road, just north of 38th Street.

Police arrived and found 23-year-old Edwin Smith outside a house. He had been shot at least once and died at the scene, IMPD says.

There were no witnesses to the shooting and investigators have not identified any suspects, according to IMPD Capt. Don Weilhammer.

“I am sure that all of us, myself included, don’t want to work or live in a community that has crime like this. How we get rid of that crime is by reporting it, arresting them, convicting them, and sending them away to prison. But we can’t do that without the community’s help. I can’t stress that enough,” Weilhammer told News 8.

Anyone with information was asked to contact Detective Gary Smith at the IMPD Homicide Office at 317-327-3475 or by email at gary.smith@indy.gov.
