On Thursday, Nov. 6 at approximately 1 p.m., officers with the Fishers Police Department served an arrest warrant on Caleb Weis 26, Indianapolis, for five felony charges related to the shooting death of Cameron Doaks, 24.
Weis is the suspect in the fatal shooting that occurred on March 16, 2024, in the 10000 block of Apple Blossom Circle. When officers arrived on that date, they found Doaks with multiple gunshot wounds. Doaks was later pronounced dead at an area hospital.
In the time since the shooting, Fishers police detectives gathered every piece of evidence, interviewed witnesses, reviewed camera footage from neighboring houses, and completed forensic analyses.
A coordinated plan was put in place to take Weis into custody. Here are the details:
Fishers police officers located Weis inside a maroon Ford Mustang in the area of 91st Street and Masters Road, just south of the Marion County/Hamilton County line in Indianapolis.
A Fishers police vehicle pulled in behind the Ford Mustang and deployed an immobilization device referred to as a grappler. The device, deployed from a police vehicle, attached to the vehicle, which then went off the road into a ditch. Weis was allegedly armed with a handgun and fired shots toward officers.
Fishers police officers discharged their firearms, striking Weis. He fell to the ground, at which time officers moved in and provided lifesaving emergency aid. Weis was then transported by ambulance to a local hospital in critical condition.
Fishers Police Chief Ed Gebhart requested that the Indiana State Police be the lead investigator in this officer-involved shooting. No officer or uninvolved bystanders were injured in this incident.
Assisting in this investigation are the Fishers Police Department, ATF, Marion County Prosecutor’s Office, Indianapolis EMS, Indianapolis Fire Department, and Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
According to police, the information collected during the original investigation supports the following charges:
- Murder (Felony 1)
- Attempted Murder (Felony 2)
- Voluntary Manslaughter (Felony 2)
- Aggravated Battery (Felony 3)
- Criminal Recklessness (Felony 6)
All criminal defendants are to be presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
