Second Fatal Shooting Victim Identified

(Michigan City, IN) - There’s new information to report in the fatal shootings of two people found in motor vehicles in less than a week in Michigan City.

 

According to police, the victims were shot in motor vehicles early Sunday at Springland Avenue and Roeske Avenue and on July 13 outside East Side Liquors in the 1600 block of East Michigan Boulevard.

 

Police said the first victim was 53-year-old Jimmy Brown of Michigan City.

 

An unidentified passenger in his vehicle was taken by ambulance to a hospital for medical treatment. The other victim left the roadway in her vehicle after being shot.

 

The woman identified today as Kylie McKee, 26, also of Michigan City, and Brown, later succumbed to their injuries.

 

No arrests have been made in the shootings.

 

A person of interest was being held for the death of Brown until prosecutors decided if there was sufficient enough evidence against that person to file charges.

 

La Porte County Prosecutor John Lake said the individual had been released, but detectives are still actively looking into both cases.
