FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) - A woman faces felony charges in connection to the high school party that led to a mass shooting at her house earlier this month, according to the Fort Wayne Police Department. Monday, police arrested 42-year-old Joanna Eastes on charges of neglect of a dependent, a Level 6 felony; furnishing property for the purpose of enabling minors to consume alcohol, a Level 6 felony, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, a Class A misdemeanor. Allen County property records show Eastes is the owner of a home in the 4900 block of Manistee Drive where a group largely composed of high schoolers met for a party on Oct. 19. Investigators said Willie Venzell Ivy III, a student at North Side High School, was shot and killed after he first fired nine shots into the home, injuring nine people at the party. FWPD: No charges for shooter who killed high schooler at northeast side party The Halloween party “quickly got out of hand”, a press release said. An advertisement for the party allegedly told attendees – many of whom were teenagers – to bring their own alcohol and marijuana. According to the release, the homeowner - now identified as Eastes - eventually went to her bedroom and locked the door but didn’t call police. When Ivy got to the party, two people tried to stop him from coming in, but his group of friends forced their way in, according to a joint statement between the Fort Wayne Police Department and the Allen County Prosecutor’s Office. At some point, Ivy allegedly pulled out a handgun and began firing shots. Nine people were hit by the gunfire and their injuries were reportedly non-life-threatening. A man who’d been shot returned fire, according to the release, shooting Ivy. The release said Ivy was found in the yard of a home and was pronounced dead at the scene. “This man will not face criminal charges as his actions were justified under established Indiana self-defense law,” the statement read. Eastes is being held at the Allen County Jail.
