UPDATE - The perimeter has been released. The person officers were trying to locate was not located.

UPDATE - Media staging will now be at 3800 Breen Dr.

Reports on the internet that this was an “active shooting” incident are not accurate.

IMPD has an active perimeter in the area of E 38th St and N post Rd reference a homicide. Residents are asked to avoid the area, stay inside, and call 911 if they see anyone suspicious.

Hope to see you there tonight !

UPDATE: On Friday April 5, 2024, IMPD officers arrested a 17-year-old for his alleged role in the shooting which left 7 juveniles injured last weekend downtown.

IMPD continues to speak to witnesses to identify other suspects involved.

Over the weekend, IMPD did not encounter any juveniles out past curfew.

We didn’t do it alone. It was because our community, youth and parents stepped up.

Your proactive involvement played a vital role in ensuring the safety and security of our kids.

Thank you.
