A young Indianapolis man, Angel Luna, was discovered deceased in a tragic turn of events that began with his disappearance on his nineteenth birthday. The 19-year-old male was reported missing on November 22, 2022, a day that should have been filled with celebration. The search for Luna would extend for several weeks, casting a somber shadow over the holiday season for his family and friends.
The investigation into his whereabouts led authorities to Johnson County, where a grim discovery
was made on December 15, 2022. Luna's body was found near a pond in the vicinity of State Road 135 and Clary Boulevard South Drive in Bargersville, a town just south of Greenwood. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department was able to locate the area by pinging the missing teen's cellphone. The Bargersville Police Department, upon being notified, took the lead in the investigation, which was initially classified as a suspicious death.
An autopsy conducted by the Johnson County Coroner's Office would soon reveal the violent nature of Angel Luna's death. The cause of death was determined to be multiple gunshot wounds, prompting investigators to officially rule the case a homicide. While the discovery of Luna's body provided a painful answer to his family's questions about his whereabouts, it opened up a new and agonizing chapter centered on the search for justice. Law enforcement officials have indicated that they do not believe Luna's death was a random act of violence, suggesting he may have been targeted.
As of late 2025, the investigation into Angel Luna's murder remains ongoing. Authorities have publicly urged anyone with information regarding the case to come forward and contact the Bargersville Police Department. To date, there have been no announcements regarding any arrests, named suspects, or persons of interest in connection with the homicide. The case continues to be an active investigation as law enforcement works to piece together the circumstances that led to the untimely and violent death of the young man.
