Indiana State Police have arrested a suspect in the September 29 shootout involving a state excise officer.
According to ISP, Indiana State Police E.R.T. served a warrant at the Hickory Road Apartments around 7:12pm, arresting 20-year-old Ian Steven McDonald Austin, of South Bend, for Attempted Murder. Authorities say nobody was hurt during the arrest.
Last Thursday, authorities reported an Indiana State Excise Police Officer was working on a special detail with a convenience store. The officer followed a suspicious 1990's-early 2000's Silver Honda Civic. The suspect then stopped, got out of his car at the intersection of Jacob and Rockne, and fired a the officer. The officer returned fire. No one was shot, but the suspect got away.
State Police say investigators followed leads and gathered evidence "nonstop since the incident".
