This is a developing story.
An unidentified suspect was shot and killed late Sunday night by Fort Wayne Police officers in the 4200 block of Avondale Drive.

At least one of the individuals had a gun, and did not comply with officers’ commands. Shots were fired and the individual was struck. Officers rendered aid until medics arrived and the subject was found to have died.
No further information has been released as of late Monday morning. This is the sixth fatal police-involved shooting in Allen County since April.
Sunday night's shooting remains under investigation by the Fort Wayne Police Department, Allen County Coroner's Office, and the Allen County Prosecutor's Office. The Indiana State Police will conduct an independent investigation.
