INDIANAPOLIS — After more than 18 months, a woman has been arrested in connection with the death of 34-year-old D'Lon Edwards in December 2021.

39-year-old Chaznee Mockabee was arrested Sunday for her alleged role in the shooting death of Edwards on the city's northwest side.

Edwards was found shot shortly before 2 a.m. in the 3900 block of Lawndale Avenue near 38th Street and High School Road. He later died at Eskenazi Hospital.

Mockabee was questioned shortly after the shooting in relation to the incident at a residence in the 3900 block of Diamond Lane — where the shooting was believed to have taken place.

After more than a year of investigation, Mockabee was charged with murder.

Mockabee was taken into custody Sunday after license plate reader technology found her vehicle.
