   ANDERSON, Ind. — A judge has ruled that the man charged with murdering   
   Elwood Police Ofc. Noah Shahnavaz is competent to stand trial.   
      
   Carl Boards II's lawyers had claimed he had an intellectual disability.   
      
   But in an order issued Wednesday, the judge said all three doctors that   
   examined Boards found him competent. The judge quoted one doctor as saying,   
   "There was nothing at all in my evaluation that indicated any failing in his   
   competence. He did not present with any deficit in this regard at all. He is   
   not just competent, he is very competent."   
      
   The judge also ruled that the trial for Boards would stay in Madison County,   
   where Shahnavaz was killed. The judge said the jurors for the trial will be   
   drawn from Delaware County.   
      
   Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty in the case.   
      
   Boards is accused of fatally shooting Shahnavaz on July 31, 2022. He is   
   charged with murder, two counts of resisting law enforcement, unlawful   
   possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, firearm enhancement, habitual   
   offender, life without parole and the death penalty.   
      
   Timeline of events   
   Indiana State Police said Shahnavaz tried to stop a 2012 Buick LaCrosse near   
   the intersection of State Road 37 and County Road 1100N in Madison County   
   just after 2 a.m. Sunday, July 31, 2022.   
      
   According to court documents, Shahnavaz radioed in the license plate number.   
   The last radio transmission from the officer recorded him saying, "had a   
   gun."   
      
   ISP said the suspect got out of the Buick and fired multiple rounds at   
   Shahnavaz for an unknown reason. Shahnavaz was hit multiple times. His gun   
   was found still in its holster. Investigators found 36 rifle bullet casings   
   in the road that are believed to be from the suspect's gun.   
      
   Police said the suspect then took off in the Buick.   
      
      
   Additional responding officers gave first aid to Shahnavaz until an   
   ambulance arrived. He was taken to a hospital in Elwood before being moved   
   to a hospital in Indianapolis, where he died from his injuries.   
      
   Around 2:30 a.m., the Hamilton County Sheriff's Department attempted to stop   
   the Buick on State Road 37. A tire deflation device was used on it near   
   State Road 37 and 146th Street, but the Buick kept going and made it onto   
   Interstate 69.   
      
   Fishers Police Department officers then twice used their vehicles to stop   
   the Buick. The second time, the Buick hit the median barrier and came to a   
   stop. Officers were then able to arrest the suspect.   
      
      
   During the arrest of the suspect, a handgun was located on him. It was a 9mm   
   handgun. A black rifle with a high-capacity magazine was on the driver's   
   seat of the vehicle. A high-capacity magazine was also found at the barber   
   shop where the suspect worked.
