INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department Chief Chris Bailey on Sunday reported that there were no curfew violations during WNBA All-Star/Indiana Black Expo weekend.
Once again, no children were brought into our safe & secure location last night. Huge thanks to parents, guardians, family members, and our incredible community partners who helped staff the site all weekend. This is what community looks like. This is for our kids.
I also want to thank those who worked alongside us last night to help keep downtown safe, including our partners at @IndStatePolice and @charlesharriso5‘s Indy TenPoint Coalition. We’re grateful for your continued collaboration and support.
Chris Bailey, chief of police for the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
The youth curfew began after a Fourth of July mass shooting in downtown Indianapolis that ended with two teenagers dead and five others injured near Illinois Street and Washington Street, just below the Indianapolis Artsgarden.
