Gunfire at Indiana apartment prompts attempted murder inquiry

Law enforcement in Evansville opened an attempted murder case after an unknown assailant fired rounds into a residence at the Shady Tree Apartments during the early hours of Saturday.

Personnel arrived at the North Fulton Avenue property close to 1:40 a.m. after receiving a call about property damage, 14 News reported.

A resident told patrol officers she was roused from sleep by projectiles smashing through her pane. She shielded herself in the washroom and alerted a companion, who dialled the emergency line.

Outside the unit, personnel recovered a cluster of spent cartridges. Inside, they observed several perforations in the glazing aligned with the sleeping area she had just vacated.

Specialist detectives and evidence technicians were summoned to inspect the site.

As of yet, authorities have taken nobody into custody and have shared no description of a potential perpetrator.
