INDIANAPOLIS–A man was found dead at an apartment complex near the Indiana State Fairgrounds Wednesday night.

That man was identified as 38-year-old Jeremy Patton on Thursday morning by the Marion County Coroner’s Office.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said they got a call about a burglary at the complex on East 38th Street at around 11:35 pm.

“We’re not quite sure what happened since we don’t have any witnesses. It’s a little unusual that we got the call as a burglary in progress, but there was no forced entry,” said IMPD Captain Don Weilhammer.

Weilhammer said they did find a key and speak to a security guard.  They are, however, still searching for suspects.

Anyone with information is asked to contact IMPD at (317) 327-3475 or Crime Stoppers at (317) 262-TIPS (8477).
