INDIANAPOLIS -- A woman was shot and killed by her boyfriend Wednesday, who then turned the gun on himself, police said.

Officers with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department were called to the 3000 block of W. Morris Street around 8 p.m. for a call of shots fired. Police found a mobile home with the front door partially open.

Inside the home, police found a 2-year-old child, who was removed from the home.

Police believe 35-year-old Eric Harden shot and killed his girlfriend, 27-year-old Tiffany Greer. He then shot and killed himself.

Tiffany was the 2-year-old's mother.

Police records show that IMPD responded to the address in 2015 for an argument between the man and woman.

Tiffany's brother, Johney, said he and his sister kept close, even though they had a very rough upbringing.

"I would almost rather be in her place than her being killed last night, but there's nothing we can do about that now," said Johney.

Johney said his sister's 2-year-old little girl is okay physically, but they have no clue what she saw and what kind of affect it might have on her in the future.

Johney said that he believes Harden killed his sister because she was trying to leave him and that moments before the shooting he had asked Tiffany's other brothers to run to the store, leaving the two alone in the home.

"Just seems obvious he tried to get them to go and I think maybe if he didn't get them to leave, they may not be with us today either," said Johney.
