Did a security failure contribute to this senseless loss of life and are justice and compensation available to Mr. Faulkner’s family?
Local News
Security measures are in question after gunfire erupted inside an “Event Complex at 6445 W. Washington St.” Saturday morning, August 18, 2018, claiming the life of 34-year-old Roddrick Faulkner, according to the Indy Star. Police told media Mr. Faulkner “was shot inside the venue and collapsed outside.”
The concert venue was apparently the location of a prior fatal shooting investigation in September 2017, per WISHTV reports, raising questions over security measures on property.

Our Legal Take
Nightclub and concert venue patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.
- How did a gun gain entry to the property? What additional security measures, such as weapons screenings, metal detectors, bag searches, surveillance cameras, bright lighting, and security patrols, were implemented by the venue owner following media reports of prior gun violence on property?
Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the concert venue owner or management failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the family of Roddrick Faulkner may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss.
Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
