INDIANAPOLIS — After months of investigation, the suspect in a fatal November shooting on Indianapolis' northeast side has turned himself in to police.

According to IMPD, 19-year-old Antwan Hayes turned himself in to police last week. He had an active warrant for murder and burglary with a deadly weapon that was issued on November 17, 2025 – less than one week after this incident occurred.

The shooting occurred on November 11, 2025, when IMPD officers responded to 3544 North Oxford Street around 5:30 a.m. on a report of a person shot. When officers arrived, they found a victim with injuries consistent with gunshot wounds.

The victim was initially reported to be awake and breathing, but was later pronounced dead at the scene. Homicide investigators conducted the investigation that led to Hayes being identified as the suspect.

IMPD officials said the case involved "months of relentless pursuit" before Hayes surrendered to authorities.
