Police Pursuit of Armed Juvenile Suspect in Stolen Vehicle

Summary: Indianapolis Metropolitan Police responded to an incident involving multiple juvenile suspects, one of whom fled in a stolen silver Kia with a passenger headlight out. The suspects were pursued on foot and by vehicle through residential neighborhoods in Marion County, Indiana, particularly around Waldemere Avenue, Wickham Street, Ray Street, McCarty Street, and Delmar Avenue. The primary suspect was described as a juvenile Black male wearing a bright red hoodie, later seen with a white shirt, dark pants, and reportedly armed with a large gun. Police coordinated a perimeter, deployed a drone and K-9 unit, and attempted to box in the suspect, who was observed running through yards, alleys, and hiding behind houses and sheds. The situation posed a significant risk due to the suspect being armed and actively evading law enforcement in a populated area.
