Angela Dodson
Man Arrested In Girlfriend's Killing
Woman Fatally Shot Outside Home
December 13, 2010INDIANAPOLIS -- A man was arrested Monday in the fatal shooting of his girlfriend on the city's southeast side. Curt Lowder, 33, was arrested on a charge of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Angela Dodson, 32.
Indianapolis police were called to St. Francis Hospital in Beech Grove just before 4 a.m., where Dodson had been taken, suffering from a gunshot wound to the head.
Police were originally told that the shooting happened at a convenience store at Southeastern Avenue and Sherman Drive, but later determined that it happened outside Dodson's home in the 1100 block of South Drexel Avenue.
Dodson was transported to Methodist Hospital from St. Francis, where she was pronounced dead a short time later.
Police questioned Lowder and said that he drove Dodson to the hospital.
"Our investigators are diligently working to ascertain the reason that led up to the shooting," said Kendale Adams, Indianapolis police public information officer.
Witnesses told police that Lowder showed up at the house to ask for alcohol before shots were fired. Police declined to release information about a motive in the shooting.
"Once our investigators have had time to interview those folks, we will be able to come out with a determination as to what led up to this," Adams said.
