The City of Indianapolis has responded with silence to a request for millions of dollars of compensation by victims of last year's FedEx mass shooting in Indianapolis, narrowing their chances of a payout.

Two victims and a victim's family member each requested $700,000 through a tort claim notice sent to the city in October.

Four of the eight people killed at FedEx belonged to the Sikh community: Amarjeet Kaur Johal, Jasvinder Kaur, Jaswinder Singh and Amarjit Sekhon. The other four who were fatally wounded were Karli Smith, Matthew R. Alexander, Samaria Blackwell and John Weisert.Indiana's red flag law allows law enforcement to remove firearms from people they believe are a danger to themselves or others.

Singh survived a bullet wound to the head. Kaur's left arm was grazed. Kaur was also standing behind Jaswinder Singh — Bains' father — when he was fatally shot. She now has psychological distress, according to the tort claim notice. That doesn't give prosecutors enough time to subpoena medical records and other evidence to build a case, Mears said.

Hope the victims and their supporters get loud and don't let the city seep this under the rug

Why would the city respond? It's not their burden...
