Two dead, five injured in Indianapolis shooting
INDIANAPOLIS (NBC, KYMA/KECY) - Two people are dead and several others were injured in a mass shooting in Downtown Indianapolis early Saturday morning.
Police were already investigating a separate disturbance in the area when they heard gunfire just before 1:30 a.m. Eastern
One person was pronounced dead at the scene while six people, three teens and three adults, were hospitalized for treatment. Sadly, one of those teens later died.
Police said several guns were recovered at the scene and seven people were detained for questioning.
Indianapolis Police Chief Chris Bailey expressed frustration on the large number of unsupervised youth that were present in downtown that night.
"I don't know how many times I have to say it, we are not your children's keepers! You are! And parents and guardians have got to step up. A kid is dead tonight, and we just don't know the age of the young man down the street...still here, dead. He looks young," Chief Bailey shared.
