In the early morning hours of June 21, 2022, a family disturbance in East Chicago, Indiana, tragically ended the life of 28-year-old Jordan A. Day. Police were dispatched to a residence on Vernon Avenue around 12:13 AM following a report that two brothers were shooting at each other.
Upon arrival, officers discovered a scene of violence. Jordan Day was found in a bedroom, unresponsive with a gunshot wound to his head. He was pronounced deceased at the scene by medics.
Near his body, authorities recovered an AR-15 style rifle. The altercation also left his 24-year-old brother, O Shaye L. Day, with a serious gunshot wound to the abdomen. He was transported to a local hospital for medical attention. A third individual, 25-year-old Isiah E. Hollins, was also present during the incident and sustained a gunshot wound to his leg. Hollins reported hearing the brothers arguing before shots were fired, at which point he fled the apartment.
The East Chicago Criminal Investigation Division was called to the scene to begin an investigation into the events that transpired. However, details regarding any arrests made or charges filed in connection with Jordan Day's death have not been made publicly available. The investigation into the fatal shooting was initiated, but the outcome and any subsequent legal proceedings remain undisclosed in online sources.
