INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The funeral arrangements for two teen siblings who were shot and killed at their home last week have been announced.
Nicholas Nelson, 16, and Ashlynn Nelson, 15, died Friday at their home on Windhill Drive.
The siblings, who were students at Lawrence North High School, were allegedly shot by a 15-year-old male suspect before school Friday morning.
The male suspect has since been charged in juvenile court with the teens’ deaths.
A funeral service has been scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 7 at 1 p.m. at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church. Visitation will begin at 11 a.m.
One funeral will be held for Nicholas and Ashlynn.
Family and immediate friends will attend a private burial at Memorial Park Cemetery.
“Our family would like to thank everyone for their overwhelming support, expressions of concern, and every offer of assistance. During this difficult time, we ask for your patience, continued prayers, and private time allowing us to adjust and heal,” said a family representative.
Antonia Bailey, the mother of the victims, has asked members of the Indianapolis community to reflect upon her children’s deaths and do more to make a positive difference in the lives of youth.
“Our Indianapolis youth should not only be celebrated nor highlighted after tragedy strikes; celebrate them now by telling [them] you believe in them every day,” Bailey said in a statement.
