BROWNSBURG — A man was shot to death during some type of "transaction" gone wrong late Thursday in Brownsburg, police say.
Police say they're now looking for a car that was occupied by two people at the scene as well as the victim's vehicle, which was stolen after the shooting.
Officers found the victim, Christian Arciniega, shot in a parking lot around 11 p.m. in Cardinal Bark Park. He died at the scene.
