INDIANAPOLIS — Police said a woman was shot accidentally by a juvenile inside a home early Thursday morning on the south side of Indianapolis.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were called around 3:15 a.m. to the 3200 block of Laurel Street on the report of a person shot, IMPD Lt. Shane Foley said in a press release.
When officers arrived, they found a woman, later identified as Kendra Berry, 35, shot and killed, and multiple kids inside the home, Foley said. A gun was found in the same room as Berry.
Through an investigation, detectives determined there were no signs of forced entry into the home, Foley said. They are "confident" there is no threat to the community.
On Monday, Foley said the death was determined to be accidental and committed by one of the juveniles inside the home. Foley said additional details are expected to be released.
Detectives are still conducting a death investigation, not a homicide investigation, at this time.
