A Michigan City man has been charged with murder, attempted murder, and weapons charges in connection with the death of a 21-year-old man earlier this year.

It was back in May when police got a call about two people hit by gunfire in a drive-by shooting in the 200 block of North Calumet Avenue.

One of the victims, 21-year-old Tyrese Morris-Cross was taken to the hospital where he died from his injuries.

The LaPorte County Sheriff’s Office says four other victims were later identified that were targeted.

The suspect, 30-year-old man Amond Nixon, is locked up in the LaPorte County Jail on unrelated charges.

He’s due in court on December 21st.
