Weekend Wrapup: Two Shootings, Deadly Hit-and-Run, Christmas Fires, and Hoosiers Face Miami
from Indianapolis Local Pulse · host Inception Point AI
Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Saturday, December 27. We kick off with breaking news from our east side, where IMPD investigated two shootings early yesterday on Rural Street near East Michigan and 10th. A 45-year-old man, Michael Greene, lost his life in the street, and two others—a man and a woman—arrived at the scene shot and in critical condition. Police chased a suspect with a handgun onto I-70 and took him into custody. They're still determining if the incidents connect, and we urge anyone with tips to call IMPD right away. In a separate tragedy, a woman died in a hit-and-run on Girls School Road near Rockville Road, just west of I-465. Officers found the suspect SUV near 10th and I-465, but the driver's still at large. This marks the 36th pedestrian killed in traffic here this year, and DPW plans 25 new crosswalks on that stretch next year to boost safety. Shifting to fires, IFD handled multiple Christmas blazes, including a harrowing one on Beechwood Avenue where a father heroically ran back inside to save his 5-year-old from the flames. Two kids and four adults went to the hospital, but one dog and one cat sadly didn't make it. On 34th near MLK, a man cooking on a Coleman stove on his bed suffered serious burns, though his five dogs escaped unharmed. A deadly crash near 38th and Mithofer is also under review. We stay safe out there, listeners—today's mostly cloudy with highs around 50 and lows near 47, a slight chance of late showers, but no major disruptions. Expect a sharp drop tomorrow with thunderstorms, winds, and temps crashing to the 20s by Monday, so bundle up for outdoor plans. A quick public safety note: 16-year-old RJ Williams remains missing since last week near Broad Ripple Avenue and North College—his backpack turned up by the White River. His family needs our help; contact IMPD if you know anything. On a brighter note, our Indiana Hoosiers face Miami today, aiming to snap a seven-game skid—Kel'el Ware's averaging 12 points, so we root for a turnaround. No big city hall moves today, but keep eyes on those road upgrades. Carmel wrapped a fantastic holiday season with strong community events, and we're hearing whispers of new spots opening post-holidays near Kaboom Carousel. Thanks for tuning in, listeners—subscribe for daily pulses. This has been Indianapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
