INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A man was shot and killed outside an Amazon warehouse in Greenfield early Friday morning, the Hancock County Sheriff’s Department said.

Just after 12:40 a.m. Friday, Hancock County deputies were dispatched to a shooting in the parking lot of the Amazon Distribution Warehouse at 7114 W. 200 N. That’s in an industrial park near Cumberland, not far from the Marion County/Hancock County line.

“Deputies arrived to find one male laying on the ground with an apparent gunshot wound. He was pronounced deceased on the scene. The suspected shooter, another male, was also in the parking lot with hands raised to surrender,” the sheriff’s department said in a release.

The suspect was taken into custody without incident. His name is not being released at this time.

The victim was identified as 39-year-old Isaac Riley, of Indianapolis.

“This appears to be an isolated incident between two people and the shooting appears to be in self-defense. The suspected shooter and witnesses all cooperated with law enforcement,” the sheriff’s department said.

The investigation ongoing and there is no threat to the public.
