An Indianapolis man has been arrested for a role in a reported Shelbyvile home invasion on August 18.
In the 3 p.m. hour, an elderly couple in their 80s were assaulted at their home on Cardinal Lane by men described as wearing tactical gear and armed with two guns. The woman at the home, age 84, was able to contact the couple's daughter to say they were being attacked.
Colton Lacy, 33, of Indianapolis, was arrested after law enforcement was able to use surveillance cameras in the area to identify a Dodge Charger that dropped the men off at the home. The men left in the same vehicle.
Lacy was initially charged with robbery resulting in serious bodily injury, armed robbery and burglary resulting in serious bodily injury.
During the home invasion, the men demanded to know where the money was and fired a shot that injured the male victim, age 87. He was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The couple stated they had no money at the home.
