INDIANAPOLIS — Police are investigating after one person was killed and two others were injured in a triple shooting at a short-term rental property on Indy's north side early Saturday morning.

According to Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, at approximately 3:30 a.m, officers were dispatched to 2600 Carrolton Ave on a report of a person shot.

When officers arrived, they located an adult male inside the residence with injuries consistent with a gunshot wound.

He was transported to the hospital in critical condition and is expected to survive.

Police said they observed a male armed with a firearm attempt to run inside the residence and detained him.

Minutes later, officers were called to the area of N. College Ave. and Fall Creek Pkwy on a report of a person shot.

There, police said they located an adult male with injuries consistent with a gunshot wound who was transported to the hospital in stable condition.
