    Wow, even for a Friday night that's a lot of shootings. The officer involved shooting was on the east side (PSA: don't pull a gun on the Police and you won't get shot by the Police). No officers hurt (always good to read), they went home and the baddie didn't. One was reported near Community South on County Line, sounds like he was shot elsewhere (where someone else was found shot up the road a ways.)

    Edit: second link is for the officer-involved shooting. Sounds like the Po-Po was out looking for criminals ( “conducting surveillance around criminal activity.”) and they found one.

    INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Friday night was a violent one in Indianapolis with several shooting reported within a couple hours, including one in which officers shot and killed a suspect.


    The officer-involved shooting happened on the northeast side, near 42[SUP]nd[/SUP] Street and Richelieu Road at about 8:15 p.m. Police say a suspect produced a gun before being fatally shot by officers.


    A second shooting was reported in the 7800 block of Dogwood Drive just before 9 p.m. That’s on the south side. When officers arrived, they located a man who had been shot and he was then transported to an area hospital in critical condition.


    A third shooting was reported in the 1400 block of County Line Road shortly before 9 p.m. That’s also on the south side. At that scene, police say they located a juvenile male. He was transported to an area hospital in critical but stable condition. Officers say the shooting possibly happened at Greentree Apartments.


    A fourth shooting happened shortly before 10 p.m. in the 1700 block of Senate Boulevard on the near north side. When officers arrived to that scene, they located a male who had been shot. He appears to be in stable condition. Officers believe the shooting occurred in the 5600 block of Emerson Avenue on the southeast side.


    Lastly, a double shooting was reported on the east side in the 2800 block of North Graham Avenue just before 10 p.m. When officers arrived, they located a male shot in the leg and another person shot in an unknown location. The male was transported to an area hospital in stable condition.

    Clearly all current efforts at reducing this kind of criminal activity are working extremely well, it's obviously time to double down. If only we could determine what has changed between now and when this type of thing was so common....

    None of the shootings were in the parking lot of a strip-club. The heavy police presence at the strip-clubs is working well. :laugh:

    Studies have shown that the sale of ice cream increases during the summer. Studies have also shown that violence and shootings increase during the summer time. Really only points to one logical conclusion.
