BROWNSBURG, Ind. (WISH) — A gunman launched an unprovoked attack Tuesday afternoon against two men who were working in the Brownsburg Cemetery, and the aggression ended with two of the three men dead, the town police department said late Wednesday night.
A fourth man, a passing motorist, shot and killed the gunman, who was identified as Joshua Hayes, 22, of Indianapolis, according to a news release issued late Wednesday night by Capt. Jennifer Pyatt-Barrett, the investigations division commander of the Brownsburg Police Department.
The other man who died, one of the two working in the cemetery, was identified as Seth Robertson, 36, of Indianapolis.
Officers with the Brownsburg police were called around 1:15 p.m. Tuesday to the area of 56th and North Grant streets after receiving a phone call of multiple shots fired and a man down in the middle of the road, Cpl. Chris Nelson with Brownsburg police said at the scene.
Police arrived to find Hayes and Robertson in the street, one man south of the intersection and the other man west of it. Both were pronounced dead at the scene of apparent gunshot wounds, Nelson said at the scene.

Not quite, Hayes was not killed by a white police officer.
LOL! And the math didn’t add up until reading the entire article. The shooter shot the “Good Samaritan” who then shot the shooter. That doesn’t quite line up with my view of a “Good Samaritan”. The main thing is though he was a Good Shot.
Oops. I see they don’t use the term Good Samaritan, but call him a “passing motorist”. Well, he wasn’t exactly just that either.
“...we have no reason to believe this was a racially-motivated crime,” Brownsburg Police Department Captain Jennifer Pyatt-Barrett said.

Sure, we believe that ....NOT!
The two guys that Hayes randomly decided to shoot were both workers at that cemetery. There does not appear to be any connection between the two workers and the shooter. I did not check his social media pages to see if he was a BLM supporter or had posted anything inflammatory, if there was something there, it has probably been taken down.
They are down-playing the racial angle although you can be sure if the shooter was white and shot two random black guys, it would be the lead story on every lamestream media outlet.
I grew up in Brownsburg and went to high school there, but now live 5 miles to the south in another suburb of Indianapolis. As with all suburbs of Indianapolis, it is becoming more violent as Indianapolis spreads out.
No it didn’t and when I took math, I never made it past the first 5 words of the text, much less all the way to the end of it!
Note to self. Pack an extra AR-15 and mags for any trips to or near a cemetary.
