ellettsville police department

The warrant was the result of an investigation started last year due to “accusations of illegal activity at the business” in Richland Plaza, according to an Ellettsville Police Department press release.

State Road 46 southeast of Ellettsville is a type of roadway called a “stroad”: a suburban fixture with the storefronts and housing of a street but the high speed and traffic of a road.

On Sept. 1, 2022, slightly more than a year after the victim came to the police and 11 days after the assault and death of Avery McMillan, Ellettsville police applied for a warrant to take a sample of Eric Montgomery’s DNA.
