In the early morning hours of September 14, 2014, a grim discovery was made in an alley on Jefferson Street in Gary, Indiana. Inside a parked vehicle, police found the bodies of 38-year-old Alex McKenney and 32-year-old Tanika Ewing. Both had been fatally shot multiple times.
A concerned citizen had alerted authorities to a suspicious vehicle around 3:30 a.m., leading to the tragic finding. Ewing was in the driver's seat, and McKenney was in the passenger seat.
The lack of any immediate reports of gunfire in the area presented an initial challenge for investigators trying to piece together the timeline of events.
The case of the double homicide of Alex McKenney and Tanika Ewing remains unsolved. Despite the ongoing investigation by the Gary Police Department, no suspects have been publicly identified, and no arrests have been made in connection with their deaths. Authorities have continued to appeal to the public for any information that might lead to a breakthrough in the case.
