ISP: Logansport Man Shot by Officer

December 24, 2024 by Indiana Chronicle Leave a Comment

Logansport, Indiana – The Indiana State Police, at the request of the Cass County Sheriff‘s Office, are investigating a police-involved shooting that resulted in the death of a Logansport, IN, man.

Preliminary investigations by Indiana State Police detectives revealed that earlier this morning, at approximately 12:23 a.m., deputies from the Cass County Sheriff’s Office responded to a residence in the 3000 block of W. County Road 500 S. regarding a report of two individuals who had been stabbed.

Upon arrival, deputies discovered one victim and began administering life-saving measures. While retrieving additional medical supplies from their patrol vehicle, a deputy spotted a man identified as Christopher S. Evans, 35, of Logansport, IN, armed with knives. The deputy issued several commands to Mr. Evans, but he failed to comply, leading to an altercation. Mr. Evans charged at the deputy, who retreated into an adjacent field. The deputy subsequently discharged their weapon, striking Mr. Evans at least once.

Despite life-saving efforts, Mr. Evans succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene. Notification to Evan’s family has been made. One victim remains in critical but stable condition, while the other victim’s injuries are not considered life-threatening.

No deputies were injured during the incident. The deputy involved in the shooting has been placed on administrative leave, which is standard procedure for the Cass County Sheriff’s Office following an officer-involved shooting.

The Indiana State Police is leading the investigation, with assistance from the Carroll County Coroner’s Office and the Carroll County Prosecutor’s Office.

Any questions about the deputies involved should be directed to the Cass County Sheriff.

This is an active investigation, and no further information will be released at this time. Once the investigation is complete, the findings will be submitted to the Carroll County Prosecutor’s Office for review.
