Officers fatally shoot suspect believed to be connected to deadly shooting in Henry County
Indiana State Police said the suspect reached for a holster, drew a handgun and pointed it at two officers. The officers then shot the man.
RUSHVILLE, Ind. — Indiana State Police is investigating an officer-involved shooting early Tuesday morning that is believed to be connected to a shooting that happened earlier in rural Henry County.
Henry County deputies were called to the 2400 block of South Kennard Road in Kennard, Indiana, Monday around 11:30 p.m. on multiple reports of a shooting.
According to investigators, Ivan Wade Flowers, 65, was woken up by a knock at his door. When he opened the door, a man shot and killed him, and left the scene. A sister of Flowers told 13News, his family was also home at the time of the shooting.
Deputies shared suspect information with surrounding police agencies in hopes the suspect would be found.
Shortly after midnight, Rushville officers found a vehicle matching that of the suspect driving south on State Road 3 in northern Rush County.

First!
I love to start the day with a DRT!!!
too bad we don’t have a 3 fer!!
take care all!!
Willy
Welcome back, WW!
How ya doin’?
Good to see that you’re still above ground and converting oxygen into plant food (CO2).
Hanging in there, just getting ready to head out to the doctors for another procedure this morning. Hoping it will help my back pain!!!
Take care all,
Willy
Stay well WW!!
Prayers that the docs can help, and for you in general, WW.
Good to see ya posting, WW. Hope the visit to the Doc helps.
Hang in there, WW! Going through the same but by virtue of a different cause(accident). Coincidentally, I have a Dr’s appointment today too – good luck to us both! As a team-mate bade me to do ‘Dude, take it one vitamin I -ibuprofen- at a time’. That and in temperance with the odd application of some Golden Elixir has been beneficial. Hope you’re feeling better real soon, Bro!
Good to see ya, WW! Drink water, take a couple 800mg Motrin, and change your socks. You’ll be fine.
Yeppers, if Ms Thang woulda had a little more range time, we coulda had you a trifecta of DRTs WW. But, hey…2 out of 3 ain’t bad. Good luck at the Chancre Mechanic, don’t be eying the little nurses with bad intents. Saw my new Doc yesterday (2nd trip, fired the male doc that I’d had for nearly 20 years, got tired of being mis-treated). Ya better off seeing the woman that knows what’s going on v the man in charge. Very well preserved, mature Auburn haired beauty, purt near as purrdy as OAM. And, yes, I did mis-behave.
All God’s Chill’ren do needs them a nice little hide-de-hole gunz. Polymer frame *sigh*
“2 out of 3 ain’t bad”
That’s what Meatloaf said (Love Under The Dashboard Light)
Well . . . not exactly.
That’s indeed a Meatloaf lyric – but it’s not from “Paradise by the Dashboard Light”. Rather, it’s from the 1st track on side two (on the original LP; it’s track 5 on CD) of his album Bat Out of Hell. “Paradise by the Dashboard Light” is the 2nd track on side 2 of the original LP, and track 6 on CD.
That lyric is also the tune’s title.
I have a nice little Taurus polymer frame 357 that hides away very nicely! Doesn’t mean I don’t love my 1911 any less.
That Rushville story got some weird on ‘er:
“[The dirtbag’s estranged wife] said in court records that Petry always carries a gun. She also said that when he gets drunk, he claims to be a veteran suffering from PTSD from Afghanistan. She said he never actually served in the military.”
Sounds like my pos brother????
Gee-Whiz, now it’s too bad that he (Benjamin Seth Petry, age 34) never got around to joining up so he could be featured as a Valor Vulture here on TAH.
His life could have taken a 180 simply by enlisting, which coincidentally is the BLDAM/DRT score (36×5) spun up by the Whiz Wheel®™.
Any day the Claw fires up the Whiz Wheel®™ is a blessing. Thanks for the weighty number!
Grateful Mr Flowers’ family won’t have to sit thru a trial.
Claw,
Good call on the Whiz Wheel.

I was wondering why the homeowner (Flowers) would open the door to someone at 1130 pm? Read the linked story apparently Flowers and Petra (the shooter) knew each other. What their relationship was, the story didn’t say.
– Officers shoot, kill armed man in Mounds View liquor store –
Obviously this bone-head never heard the tune ‘I fought the Law and the law Won’.
– Officers fatally shoot suspect believed to be connected to deadly shooting in Henry County – WTF?! Guess this other bone-head never heard the ‘I fought the Law’ tune either..
– Woman Fires Gun At Would-Be Carjacker In Roseland –
My kind of Lady… But as KoB points out, more Range time may yield Less recidivism…
Thank you AW1Ed and Gun Bunny(yes GB, I am still following Dr’s orders 😀)
2nd round of physio today. Still quite a ways to go but like the Chicago tune goes – Feeling stronger every day.
Tomorrow I’ll get to find out about my pending 2022 surgery dates. Not moaning but this whole ‘one-step-at-a-time’ shit is having me really looking forward to all of this being over and done with ASAP. Cheers and good spirits to all here.
YAY HI WW!!!
I can’t read this without thinking….
Slightly off topic (but that has never deterred several of our most prolific commenters), Alec Baldwin is now claiming he never pulled the trigger on that single action pistol. Somehow, I guess that pistola just cocked itself and pulled its own trigger. He also claims that he never pointed the gun at his gunshot victims; so I guess the gun aimed itself at that woman’s chest. Of course, Stephanopoulos is too clueless to ask any questions about how the hammer was cocked or how the trigger was pulled. The ignorant should not be questioning the disingenuous and then calling it news.
Reminds me of a few Stephan King stories where a character will fire a revolver, somehow drop it, and when it lands on the ground, it fires another round.
Obviously King is a Queen when it comes to guns.
There is no ‘prepping the battlespace’ in this case (I hope…) to sidestep his responsibility in negligent homicide. This ‘interview’ is 100% pointed at the perspective grand jury, imho.
If he walks on this, what little hope I have for this society is extinguished.
Be the ham sandwich, Alec. BE the sandwich.
