Person found dead with trauma wounds

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A female was found dead with wounds from trauma Sunday afternoon on the city’s east side, Indianapolis police say.

The computer-aided dispatch system says Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department was called just before 3:30 p.m. Sunday to a death investigation and “murder homicide” on the southeast corner of East 34th Street and Shadeland Avenue. That’s an area with businesses and industries.

Officer Drew Brown with IMPD’s public affairs unit said it’s not been determined if the female is an adult or child. He says the death was believed to be an isolated incident, and the Marion County Coroner’s Office will determine a cause of death.

More information should be released Monday, he says.

Anyone with information was asked to call 317-327-3475 or contact Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana.

No additional information was immediately available.
