A document shared by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department on Monday detailed this encounter. According to the document, on March 2, 2020, Hole and his mother drove to the Gun Bunker, a gun shop on the east side of Indianapolis, to look at guns. His mother told police she didn't know her son had brought money to buy a gun. Hole ended up buying a .410 shotgun and didn't buy any shells. When they got home, Hole was asked what he was going to do with the gun and the document says he "became angry and struck his mother" and "told her to shut up."
