A tragic incident unfolded at an Indiana bar when an argument over a vape led to a fatal shooting. Authorities report that a man in a wheelchair shot another man in the face, resulting in his death.

Maclean Murt, aged 31, now faces charges of murder and armed robbery, as documented in Hamilton County court records. The shooting occurred in the early hours of Monday as a local tavern was preparing to close for the night.

The altercation happened at Britton Tavern in Fishers, a city within the Indianapolis metropolitan area. Among the patrons was 30-year-old Justin Burton. As the bar approached its 3 a.m. closing time, tensions escalated.

The disagreement reportedly centered around a vape, which sparked the altercation.

According to reports from Fox affiliate WXIN, Murt observed his friend in a heated exchange with Burton, accusing Burton of stealing the friend’s vape. Murt then maneuvered his wheelchair towards the altercation near the tavern’s restrooms to confront Burton.

What happened next was disputed. The suspect reportedly said Burton pushed him, causing him to flip backward, and, as he did so, “a round slipped off.” However, according to Indianapolis NBC affiliate WTHR, surveillance footage showed that Murt was the one to have gotten physical; he allegedly grabbed and yanked Burton’s arm, causing Murt to fall out of his wheelchair, and then pulled out a gun and shot the victim in the head.

“You just killed him,” a bouncer said, according to a witness. As this witness exited the bathroom, he saw the victim “with his head open,” per court documents obtained by the outlets. “The witness stated that he heard the guy in the wheelchair say to the bouncer that he shot the victim because he stole his vape,” the documents also said.

The Fishers Police Department was called to the tavern at about 2:45 a.m. Officers and medics tried to save Burton, but he was pronounced dead at the scene after having sustained “injuries consistent with a single gunshot wound.”

Officers began investigating and speaking with witnesses. Murt was also still there.

“I’m sorry about this,” the suspect allegedly told officers. He was then brought to the Fishers Police Department headquarters. At one point, when he was left alone in a room, he reportedly stated, “You could have just gave the vape up, dude, and none of this would have happened.”

Investigators were also still collecting evidence at the scene of the crime. According to police, a woman who told officers she was Murt’s sister was holding the vape that had reportedly caused the fight.

“I’m just in shock,” she allegedly said. “Because my brother just f— shot somebody.”

Murt was placed in the Hamilton County Jail. He had an initial court appearance scheduled for Friday.

According to a GoFundMe set up for Burton’s family, the man had just turned 30 years old hours before the shooting.

“He was a victim of gun violence,” the fundraiser set up by his former swimming coach says, adding, “His personality was LARGE. He was outgoing and funny. I told him when he graduated that he was going to go places.”
