INDIANAPOLIS — An Indianapolis man has been sentenced to 45 years in prison after pleading guilty to a 2024 murder.

Christopher Brown, 47, was shot and killed near the intersection of 25th Street and Hillside Avenue on the northeast side of Indianapolis.

Frank Alexander pleaded guilty to Brown's murder.

Alexander killed Brown after an argument that started inside the New Bridge Apartments complex. Security video captured the shooting and showed Alexander shooting at Brown at least eight times before jogging back to his car and driving off.

Witnesses told police they heard Alexander shout, "I'll shoot you and kill you right here," minutes before killing Brown.

Alexander was arrested four days after the murder.
