Two women are jailed in Indiana for the murder of a 43-year-old Dowagiac man Thursday. The Dowagiac Police Department says the 39-year-old from Dowagiac and 41-year-old from Mishawaka had been living with the victim, and one was his girlfriend. The two argued Monday and she shot him. The two women got help from another person to try to dispose of the body but were unable to, so they left him in the trash and took off. He wasn’t found until Thursday, and the women were arrested Friday in South Bend. They will be facing open murder charges in Cass County, with their names released when they are arraigned.
