Multiple shootings across Indianapolis overnight
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Several people were wounded in a series of shootings in Indianapolis overnight and early this morning, according to police. None of the shootings have been fatal, but the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police have been busy since just after midnight responding to multiple incidents across the city.
The first shooting occurred on the west side near 18th Street and West Kessler Boulevard North Drive, where police believe a shooter targeted a man. The victim was taken to Eskenazi Hospital and is reported to be in stable condition. Shortly after, another man who had been shot was dropped off at Methodist Hospital.
Police found a pickup truck possibly connected to this shooting with bullet holes in it at a nearby White Castle parking lot.
Around 12:30 a.m. Wednesday, a man reported being shot while sitting in his car at Maple Creek Apartments near Michigan Street and North Holt Road. He attempted to drive away but crashed into an apartment building. Police say this shooting is unrelated to the others, and the victim is expected to recover.
The most recent shooting happened just after 2:30 a.m. near Washington Street and Belmont Avenue. A man told officers he was shot while walking down the street. He is stable, but provided little information to the police at the scene.
Police have not announced any arrests in connection with these shootings. Anyone with information is urged to contact IMPD or Crime Stoppers.
