On the night of August 20, 2011, Indianapolis police responded to a report of violence outside an apartment complex on the city's east side. The incident occurred just before midnight, prompting officers to rush to the scene where they discovered two victims suffering from gunshot wounds. Among the injured was Michael Harney, a 27-year-old Black male, who had been targeted in the shooting along with another individual.
Harney was found alongside 22-year-old Razee Scott, who had also sustained critical injuries during the gunfire. Emergency responders assessed the situation, but the wounds proved fatal for both men. Despite the immediate police response, Harney and Scott were pronounced dead at the scene, marking a double homicide that shook the local community that Saturday night.
In the aftermath of the shooting, investigators worked to gather evidence and identify potential leads. However, the case proved difficult to solve. Reports indicate that authorities were unable to make any immediate arrests in connection with the murders. Years after the incident, the investigation into the deaths of Michael Harney and Razee Scott remained open with no suspects in custody, leaving the case as an unsolved homicide on the records of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
