Northeast Indy shooting kills two, injures another and leads to chaotic police chase
A morning shooting in northeast Indianapolis, which killed two and critically injured another, began a chaotic, 15-mile-long police chase that ended on the west side. Indianapolis police heard gunfire at Carriage House East Apartments just before 9 a.m. on June 28, an official said. When officers arrived at the scene, they found multiple people shot. Two were transported to the hospital, IMPD said, where one died. A deceased body remained at the scene, where it lay on the asphalt of a parking lot next to a red Jeep Compass with a shattered glass window. Officers followed a vehicle rushing away from the scene. When they tried to pull the vehicle over, the driver fled, sparking a chase across the city. During the chase, the suspect struck an ambulance in which paramedics were treating someone unrelated to the shooting. At some point as the suspects were being pursued, an armed passenger jumped out of the moving car. Some officers pursued him on foot and arrested him after a struggle, IMPD east district commander Michael Leepper said. IMPD ran the driver off the road at West 16th Street, Leepper said. The driver was arrested after officers spoke with him over the phone and he stepped out willingly. Officials said the shooting at the apartment complex appeared to be a robbery gone wrong. No one appeared to have been injured in the ambulance crash, IMPD said. Saturday morning a crowd gathered behind yellow police tape at Carriage House East Apartments. A distraught woman, unsuccessfully restrained by family, entered the crime scene and repeated, "That's my son!" An IMPD officer responded, saying, "And we're doing everything we can to process the scene so the person who did it goes away," as he escorted her out.

In the higher trims, this is complemented by the 20-inch alloy wheels. Jeep Compass EV: Interior On the inside, the Jeep Compass EV gets a refreshed look with a larger 16-inch infotainment display, a 10.0-inch instrument cluster, a series of buttons, and a rotary control unlike most of its rivals with touch-based controls.
