Fishers police say a man has been arrested after another man was fatally shot inside a bar early Monday morning, Dec. 1.
Hamilton County Coroner Jeff Jellison confirmed Monday afternoon that the man who died was Justin Burton, 30, Noblesville.
Sgt. Angela Ellison with the Fishers Police Department told News 8 at the scene the shooting happened around 2:45 a.m. inside the Britton Tavern, 14005 Mundy Drive. That’s in a strip mall and business area off East 141st Street near State Road 37. That intersection is currently closed for construction of a raised roundabout.
The man shot died at the scene, Ellison said. The suspect, 31-year-old Maclean Murt of Carmel, was still on the scene when officers arrived, and was arrested.
Murt faces a preliminary charge of murder. It was unclear what led up to the shooting.
