Police were no strangers to the apartment at 5844 W. 25th street in Speedway. Police were dispatched to the building again for what would be the most devastating call yet.
Just after 4 o’clock Wednesday morning a woman called 911 claiming her ex-boyfriend was trying to force his way inside her apartment–she told police she had a gun. When police arrived the had been shot dead near the entry of the home. Neighbors were starting to react to the news of what happened.
“It makes me really scared. I have a roommate and we’re both girls and we live alone and we don’t have a gun to defend ourselves,” said Mira Yanni.
The woman was inside the home with her two young daughters. Police say the girls were asleep during the shooting and they were unharmed. Police tell us they’ve responded to two other calls here involving the male and female–the most recent call just a couple of weeks ago for a welfare check of the children.
“Preliminary it looks to be a self defense but with any case of this magnitude we still have to confer with the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office with the information the detectives have. See what they have, let them review the case and see if there’s anything there that would look a little different than a self defense case,” said Lt. Trent Theobald of the Speedway Police Department.
The woman is not being held in police custody. Meanwhile this case is causing others to think if they could have defending their home in a similar situation.

Looks like someone saved the taxpayers of Indiana a lot of money.

THEN GET ONE, ya Ninny! Oh, wait. Sorry. 0bama’s confiscating all of the ammo. Never mind! I’m sure you voted for him. Twice. *Rolleyes*
LOL! Within seconds!
If it wasn’t illegal we could start a swap a Obamaphone for a gun.
Then sell the phones to the newly minted Obamacans.
As a result when a claim of self defense is made by a woman who assaults/kills a boyfriend I won't dismiss out of hand.
I once worked with a young lady who was physically abused in a marriage from hell. She tried to get out of it repeatedly. Finally divorced the guy and he ended up blowing her brains out and killing himself sometime later.
She had a restraining order against him, but he told her he left his prescription drugs at her home and needed to meet and get them. Why she met him that day to give them over I’ll never know.
I have a sore spot with domestic violence victims because of this.
Taking out the trash.
See my tagline--a quote from Bruce Dern as Sheriff Ed Galt, Last Man Standing.
What I want to know is how many shots she had to fire to put the violent man down ?
Enough.... :)
Quite brilliant of these single neighborgals to advertise their vulnerability.
Apparently, whatever it took worked..
Ya feel Lucky,Punk?
The woman deserves an award. One shot to the head. That’s efficient. Probably didn’t bleed much either.
I used to live quite close to that area, it’s good to know the ladies take care of business .
16th and Georgetown!
The woman knows how to take out the trash.
