He”s accused of shooting Makayla Bauman to death on Sept. 29, 2024, in Beech Grove, an Indianapolis suburb.

But when the brother drove up to make the deal, Carter and another person ran up with guns. One of them allegedly said “Give me everything! Do you want to die?” Bauman’s brother hit the car in reverse in an attempt to get away, but Carter allegedly opened fire.

Cops identified the other shooter as Carter’s brother, however they have not said if he is facing criminal charges. Carter reportedly told detectives that it was him and his brother who were being robbed. He claimed that one of the people in the car pulled out a weapon. But cops found no evidence that Bauman or her brother were ever armed.

Detectives spoke with another witness who said Carter told him he was going to “rob a white boy of some marijuana,” the affidavit reportedly said. Cops arrested Carter the day after the shooting. Prosecutors filed murder charges against Carter in adult court on Monday.
