Fatal Greenfield Amazon warehouse shooting death of Isaac Riley – Obituary
A fatal shooting occurred early on Friday, December 13, 2024, in the parking lot of the Amazon warehouse in Greenfield, Indiana, claiming the life of 39-year-old Isaac Riley from Indianapolis. The Hancock County Sheriff’s Department responded to the scene around 12:45 a.m., where they found Riley with gunshot wounds. Despite efforts to save him, Riley was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities reported that the incident appeared to be isolated, with Riley reportedly confronting the shooter inside the Amazon facility. After an exchange of aggressive remarks and threats, the shooter, who was not familiar with Riley, left the building and waited in the parking lot for a ride. When Riley approached him again and made further aggressive gestures, the shooter drew a firearm and fatally shot Riley.
The suspect, who cooperated with law enforcement, was detained without incident. Both the shooter and witnesses have been fully cooperative during the ongoing investigation. No criminal charges have been filed at this time, and all parties involved, including Amazon employees, have assisted in the inquiry.
As a result of the incident, the Greenfield Amazon facility was closed for the day, though Amazon officials stated that security measures would be heightened once operations resume. The investigation is still active.
