"You've got to look over your shoulder because you know, someone will take your life," said Eric Saunders, Victor Glover's son.

"It's way too many people walking around these streets comfortable with taking somebody's life, and then literally watching the family and the friends grieve. At some point in time, we have to be collectively sick of the cowardice," he said.

Robyn Martin Glover, Victor Glover, said she wished she had cherished the times she shared with her father while he was still alive.

"That's the horrible part about it," she said. "Once we really lost him, we realized we had some great moments with him, and we had plenty of moments with him that didn't come to mind until this took place."

Anyone with more information was asked to call IMPD Detective Mark Howard at 317-327-3475 or e-mail or Mark.Howard@indy.gov. Tips can also be submitted to Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana at 317-262-TIPS.
