Hey, @INDairy! Another fun ice cream social on Monument Circle. I saw @IMPD_Chief scooping ice cream, @FreddyFever and @rowdiebear. @ChuckWTHR was there too. What a great - and generous - bunch of scoopers. @kroger is honored to have donated the ice cream, again.
Grateful for the brave officers who put themselves in harm’s way to protect our community. We are incredibly thankful they are SAFE with their families tonight. This could have ended much differently.

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.
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.

My deepest condolences to Sheriff Luna, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, and the families of the three fallen deputies—Joshua Kelley‑Eklund, Victor Lemus, and William Osborn. Their bravery and service will never be forgotten. Our hearts are with you. 💙 @LASDHQ

It’s amazing what we can do when we work together, especially for our kids. Proud to share that 𝒏𝒐 children were brought into our safe & secure curfew location last night. Know where your kids are, what they’re doing, & who they’re with. Let’s do it again tonight Indy!
This isn't about punishment, it's about protection. We're working with our partners from across the community to do everything we can to keep young people safe & prevent further tragedy.

NW VCTF & VRT, with IMPD SWAT, executed a search warrant in the 6000 block of Stratton Square. One person was arrested with $4,450, 6 guns (incl. stolen Glock, AK-47, AR pistol), 10+ lbs marijuana, methamphetamine pills, cocaine, & 2 vehicles seized. Outstanding work! 👏
Best of luck to you and your family Eric! You are a class act!

Strong example of holding adults accountable for their children’s actions. An Indianapolis woman is sentenced to 22 months in federal prison for buying a gun she knew her son planned to use in a violent crime. @ATFColumbus atf.gov/news/press-rel…
My prayers are with everyone affected by the devastating floods in Texas. Thinking of the victims, their families, and all the first responders working tirelessly in the rescue efforts. May God protect and comfort you all. 🙏
On July 5, 2014, Officer Perry W. Renn gave his life protecting Indianapolis. Confronted by a gunman with an assault rifle, he didn’t hesitate—he got out of his car with courage and commitment to his community. We will never forget his sacrifice. @IMPDnews
