Police  in Indianapolis, capital of Indiana in the United States have launched a manhunt for the killer of a Nigerian pastor, Oluwadayomisi Epenusi.



The 66 year old Nigerian was  shot to death  at  the weekend at an apartment complex near 10th Street and I-465 on the city’s west side.Friends and neighbors said  Epenusi, had only recently moved to Indiana from Nigeria where he worked as a pastor.


Neighbors say they heard a series of gunshots early Saturday morning.


“I heard about 15 gunshots. It was nuts,” said neighbor Kristina Teague
Teague called 911, but by the time police arrived the victim had run back to his apartment and a roommate then drove the bleeding man to Eskenazi Hospital where the 66-year-old died, unable to explain to his roommate what led up to the shooting.

“The roommate said when he was on the way he asked him what happened and why he got shot, but the man couldn’t say nothing because he was still in pain,” said Moshood Kafaru.
