INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WOWO): Indianapolis police have released photos of a man they believe killed the daughter of an Elkhart pastor.

28-year-old Amanda Blackburn, who's an Elkhart native, was killed in her Indianapolis home after she was shot to death in an apparent burglary gone wrong last week. Now the Indianapolis Metro Police Department says that surveillance footage collected from a nearby home show whom they believe is the man who killed her. 

Blackburn's husband – an Indianapolis pastor – was away at the gym, and found her body almost two hours after a neighbor claims they heard gunshots. Their 1-year-old son was unharmed in his crib.
