In the autumn of 2016, the life of Charles A. Nash, a 32-year-old African-American man, was cut short in a fatal shooting in Indianapolis, Indiana. The incident occurred on November 11, 2016, in the Crown Hill neighborhood, near the intersection of 37th and Kenwood. Nash was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds.
At the time of the shooting, Indianapolis was experiencing a surge in violence, with numerous homicides reported throughout the year.
Law enforcement officials began an investigation into Nash's death and appealed to the public for any information that might lead to an arrest. Despite their efforts, a suspect was not immediately identified.
