INDIANAPOLIS — IMPD is reporting that one man is dead, another is in critical condition and several are in custody following a shooting that they believe stemmed from a fight on the near north side of Indianapolis Friday.

Initially, both men were reported to be in critical condition. A short time later, IMPD confirmed that one of the victims was pronounced deceased at the scene. The other remains in critical condition and is being treated at Eskenazi Hospital.
