INDIANAPOLIS — A woman was killed Wednesday night in a home on Indianapolis’ south side.

Police say the shooting happened at a home on the 5000 block of Shelby Street, close to East Thompson Road and Madison Avenue.  

The situation began when a man called for help, saying a family member had shot him. He was not hurt but told responders that someone else in the house might have been injured.

Inside the home, a woman was found dead from a gunshot. Another person in a wheelchair was unharmed. A 21-year-old man, Gary Gatewood Jr., was later arrested in connection with her death.

Officials say the shooting stemmed from a family dispute and that there is no ongoing danger to the neighborhood.
