On May 8, around 2:45 a.m., the Evansville Police Department was called to the area of Riverside and Pollack. Several callers reported they heard shots being fired in that area.
Before officers arrived, another caller said a vehicle had wrecked at 2026 Pollack Ave. Officers arrived to find a gray passenger car that had sustained a large amount of damage. The driver had been shot several times and the arriving officers treated his wounds until an ambulance crew could arrive on scene.
Once the ambulance crew arrived, the victim was quickly transported to a local hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries.
It is believed that the victim was shot through his vehicle while parked at one location and then sped off until he wrecked at 2026 Pollack Ave.
There have been no arrests made in connection to this incident and there are no suspects. Anyone with information is asked to call the Evansville Police Department’s Detective Office at 812-436-7979, or the We Tip Line at 1-800-78-CRIME.
