Self-Defense in Indianapolis

This was a self-defense shooting from early in March. Indianapolis assault suspect shot on E. Washington Street

The victim said the man began following him and his girlfriend, which led to an argument between them. When asked by the man if he could “throw hands or fight,” the victim reportedly said he “wasn’t about that” and lifted his shirt to reveal a gun in his waistband.

After this, court documents say the two went their separate ways. The victim told police that two random men, later identified as Lamonte and Jamar Thomas, then surprised him in the street a short time later.

The two attacked, and the man defended himself and his companion.

45-year-old Jamar Thomas has died, and Lamonte Thomas, the 29-year-old nephew of Jamar is in police custody.

Lamonte Thomas is charger with robbery resulting in injury, criminal confinement, battery resulting in bodily injury, and strangulation.

The shooter was not arrested; he has not been named.

Self-defense is a human right. (Hat tip to Concealed Nation)
