Indianapolis police wound 2 robbery suspects after 1 suspect fires at pursuing officers

INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis police officers shot and critically wounded two armed robbery suspects overnight after one of them fired at officers pursuing their vehicle near Lucas Oil Stadium, police said Saturday.

Officer William Young said members of a SWAT team later spotted the two suspects and their vehicle on a street adjacent to the downtown stadium and attempted a maneuver to prevent the vehicle from possibly fleeing. It was being driven by a woman with a man in the passenger seat. The man and woman were taken to a nearby hospital where they were listed in critical condition as of 1 a.m. Saturday, police said.

Police said the suspect’s gun was recovered from the scene. Multiple officers’ body-worn cameras and a police dash camera were activated during the incident, police said.
