FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — Three juveniles were arrested early Tuesday morning in connection with hundreds of car break-ins across Indianapolis and Fishers, the Fishers Police Department said.

Police did not provide additional details about the arrested juveniles in a news release issued Tuesday afternoon.

Fishers police along with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and the FBI’s Violent Crimes Task Force made the arrests. A news conference on the arrests has been set for late Wednesday morning at the Indianapolis police chief’s office in the City-County Building in downtown Indianapolis.

The suspects were found driving a stolen vehicle in a Fishers neighborhood.

Fishers Police Chief Ed Gebhart said in a statement in the news release, “Today, we stand united in our aggressive, collaborative efforts to stop criminals from victimizing our residents and wreaking havoc on our community.”

IMPD Chief Chris Bailey said in a statement in the release, “By working together, we are able to quickly remove offenders from our streets and better protect the safety and security of our communities.”

The investigation led to the recovery of stolen property, including firearms and vehicles, which had been taken from people in Fishers and Indianapolis.

Due to the involvement of stolen firearms and vehicles crossing jurisdictions, the FBI joined the investigation to ensure accountability at both state and federal levels, the release said.
