2 Dead, 1 Injured in Indianapolis Shooting That Sparked High-Speed Chase, Two Suspects Apprehended
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — A violent and chaotic sequence of events unfolded on the east side of Indianapolis Saturday morning, leaving two people dead, another injured, and ending in a high-speed police pursuit that culminated with a suspect refusing to surrender until he finished smoking a marijuana blunt.
According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD), officers were dispatched to the Carriage House East Apartments around 8:45 a.m. on June 29 in response to reports of a triple shooting.
Upon arrival, police discovered three individuals suffering from gunshot wounds.
Despite life-saving efforts, two victims succumbed to their injuries, while a third remains hospitalized in unknown condition.
Shortly after the shooting, officers identified a black vehicle fleeing the area at high speed.
A pursuit ensued, with the suspects reaching speeds in excess of 100 miles per hour, weaving through traffic and ultimately traveling across the city.
During the pursuit, the suspects’ vehicle struck an ambulance and another civilian vehicle, causing damage but no reported injuries from those collisions.
Police deployed stop sticks in an attempt to end the chase, which concluded when the suspect vehicle crashed into a light pole near the intersection of West 16th Street and North Illinois Street.
One of the suspects exited the vehicle and attempted to flee on foot, but was quickly apprehended by pursuing officers.
The driver of the vehicle, however, reportedly remained inside and refused to exit, telling officers he would not surrender until he finished smoking a blunt.
Officers maintained a perimeter around the crashed vehicle, and the driver eventually complied and was taken into custody without further incident.
Both individuals are now in police custody. IMPD officials confirmed that there is no ongoing threat to the community and that the investigation remains active.
Authorities have not yet released the names of the deceased victims or the suspects involved.
The IMPD Homicide Unit continues to investigate the motive behind the shooting, and charges against the suspects are expected to be filed in the coming days.

Upon arrival, officers located a 14-year-old juvenile female, identified as Tyronai Reed, suffering from an apparent gunshot wound.
Emergency medical assistance was rendered at the scene, and she was transported to North Oaks Health System for treatment.
