INDIANAPOLIS — Police are investigating a double shooting in downtown Indianapolis that left a man dead and a woman injured Sunday night. 

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said there was a gathering in a parking lot near Vue Luxury Apartments in the 700 block of East Georgia Street, which is east of South College Avenue, just after 11 p.m. 

According to police, a car pulled up to the gathering, and a person got out of the car and shot a man and a woman. Police said the suspect got back in the vehicle and fled before officers arrived on scene.
