In the early morning hours of December 26, 2018, the day after Christmas, 22-year-old Aaron LaMont Grice, Jr. was shot and killed in Lawrence, a community within Indianapolis, Indiana. The incident occurred around 2 a.m. at the Canterbury House Apartments located on Franklin Road. Lawrence Police officers responded to a call of shots fired and discovered Grice, who had sustained fatal gunshot wounds.
According to his family, Grice was at the apartment complex with people he knew and
trusted. An argument reportedly broke out during a dice game, which then escalated into deadly violence. His mother, Mary Love, stated that her son lost his life over a small amount of money, possibly as little as one hundred or two hundred dollars. His sister, Danielle Law, tragically found his lifeless body at the scene just moments before police arrived.
In the years following his death, Aaron Grice's case remains unsolved, with no arrests made and no suspects publicly identified. His family has been vocal in their pleas for justice, holding vigils and speaking to the media to keep his story alive and encourage witnesses to come forward. They believe that there were multiple people present who saw what happened but have been reluctant to speak to law enforcement. His mother has expressed her profound grief and her determination to find who is responsible for her son's murder, stating she will not rest until justice is served. The family continues to hope that someone will provide the information needed to lead to an arrest and bring them a sense of closure.
