IMPD bodycam, security videos from a mass shooting that killed suspect, injured 5, including officer
By: IMPD released a video Thursday, detailing its version of events in which one man was killed, and five more people were injured, including an off-duty IMPD officer, in a shooting on the east side of Indianapolis in March.
IMPD said two off-duty officers – in full uniform – were working security at a bar and restaurant in the 9400 block of East Washington Street, near North Mitthoefer Road, around 1:30 a.m.
Police said a fight happened inside 11:11 Bar & Grille, and some people were told to leave the business.
According to police, 37-year-old Dominique Lamont Durham Sr. got outside and started shooting from the parking lot in the direction of Officers Barron and Cain and other people outside 11:11 Bar & Grill.
The video shows Cain get out of his patrol car and shoot toward Durham. More gunshots are heard, and police said Durham shot Cain in the right thigh. Bodycam video then shows Cain fall to the ground, get back up, and take cover behind a column.
Barron's bodycam video then shows him shoot toward Durham after gunshots are heard. Barron can be heard telling uninvolved people to take cover.
According to IMPD, Durham shot three of the people who had gunshot wounds. IMPD said it is not known at this time if the fourth person who was shot was injured by gunfire from Durham or the officers. It is also unclear which officer's gunshots hit Durham.
Those four people – two 45-year-old men, a 42-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman – were taken to hospitals for non-life-threatening injuries.
Fellow IMPD officers transported Cain to a hospital. According to IMPD, Cain's condition was said to be stable, and he was released from the hospital the same day.
According to IMPD, a friend took Durham to Community East Hospital after he was shot twice. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.
"We're sorry that someone lost their life here tonight. I'm also very happy that our officer did not sustain any significant injuries, although we know that there's a long road ahead for him as he deals with the emotional impact of this situation," IMPD Chief Chris Bailey said shortly after the incident. "I'm proud of our response."
IMPD said officers found the gun Durham was using at the scene. According to IMPD, officers located 13 fired cartridges that they say came from Durham's gun.
