One person dead, another injured following shooting incident in Indiana

INDIANA — One person is dead and another is in critical condition following a shooting at Tillman Park late Monday night.

Fort Wayne police responded to reports of gunfire around 11:50 p.m. near the intersection of South Hanna Street and East Tillman Road.

A second 911 caller indicated there may be a victim lying in a parking lot.

When officers arrived, they found two male victims. One was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries.
