Suspect in Grocery Store Shooting Leaves Behind Debit Card

Leaving behind some I.D. is the perfect way to get caught at the scene of a crime. A suspect involved in a fatal shooting at a grocery store in Indiana left his debit card behind, helping lead to his arrest.

A man involved in a shooting at a grocery store in Gary, Indiana, shot and killed a 48-year-old resident. The pair had been arguing near the check-out counter when the shot was fired.

After the incident, the shooter picked up his items, walked around the victim’s body and exited the store as if nothing happened. Witnesses told police the suspect forgot his debit card at the cash register.

Using this information, officers were able to identify him as a 44-year-old man from Gary. The suspect was later arrested while walking near the grocery store.
