INDIANAPOLIS — Court records in Marion County reveal new details about two raids carried out Monday night by the FBI Safe Streets Task Force and the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

The raids occurred at two locations along West 30th Street on the near north and near northwest sides of Indianapolis. They were connected to a non-fatal shooting at an apartment building near 30th and Capitol on Sunday night.

Around 9:30 p.m. Monday, detectives from the FBI Safe Streets Task Force and IMPD Violent Crimes Unit searched the apartment building on Capitol, where they found blood from the previous night’s shooting. The victim, who survived, was shot in the leg.

At the same time, police executed a search warrant at a home near 30th and California, where they arrested 39-year-old Tanesha Turner. She is accused of assaulting the victim before another man shot him.

Court documents show Turner admitted to helping kidnap the victim at gunpoint and assaulting him before the shooting. She also lives just a few feet from where 47-year-old Matthew Stevens was fatally shot early Monday. However, court records do not identify Turner or anyone else as a suspect in Stevens’ murder.
