FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO) — The FWPD was contacted by the DeKalb County Community Corrections office Tuesday morning for their help in locating a man who did not return to their custody.

As reported by our newsgathering partners at 21ALIVE, FWPD officers were then told the man was possibly on the PFW campus, and was located near Kettler Circle and Campus Drive.

Police say they approached the man, but he did not respond to officers’ commands.

FWPD Chief Scott Caudill said officers notified dispatch that shots had been fired and the subject was struck.

Officers on the scene rendered aid to the suspect until paramedics arrived, who pronounced him dead at the scene.

No other injuries were reported in the incident, Caudill says.

The shooting remains under investigation by the FWPD, with a parallel independent investigation being conducted by Indiana State Police, the PFW Police Department, the Allen County Coroner’s Office, and the Allen County Prosecutor’s Office.
