INDIANAPOLIS — A man has pled guilty to two charges after a shooting outside of the Ben Davis Stadium during a football game in 2021.
A former Ben Davis student and football player was wounded.
David Tillman and a boy who was 14-years-old at the time were arrested in connection with the shooting. Authorities allege Tillman gave a gun to the 14-year-old, who was seen running with a group of people after the gunshots were fired.

Tillman was sentenced to 3 years in the Indiana Department of Correction and was ordered to have firearms and ammunition destroyed.
