INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department has arrested Lamar Willis on Thursday for his potential role in a 2024 shooting that killed a woman back in 2024.
IMPD officers responded to the 3000 block of Lupine Drive on reports of shots fired just before 7 p.m. on September 6, 2024.
Upon arrival, officers located an adult female victim suffering from a gunshot injury inside a vehicle. The victim, later identified as Kierra "Kia" Dotson, was transported to a local hospital in critical condition, where she later died.
The family of Dotson says she was a mother, and her daughter had just turned 18.
"We're living in a time where everyone is for self and if it's not about them, then it, it doesn't matter," Kierra's cousin, Janae Dotson, said. "But just because it doesn't matter to you doesn't mean that it doesn't matter to everyone else."
The Marion County Prosecutor’s Office will make the final charging decision in this case.
