Indiana State Police have arrested a suspect in the September 29 shootout involving a state excise officer.
According to ISP, Indiana State Police E.R.T. served a warrant at the Hickory Road Apartments around 7:12pm, arresting 20-year-old Ian Steven McDonald Austin, of South Bend, for Attempted Murder. Authorities say nobody was hurt during the arrest.

The officer followed a suspicious 1990's-early 2000's Silver Honda Civic. The suspect then stopped, got out of his car at the intersection of Jacob and Rockne, and fired a the officer. The officer returned fire. No one was shot, but the suspect got away.
State Police say investigators followed leads and gathered evidence "nonstop since the incident".
