INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indianapolis police shot and critically wounded a male pointing a weapon at other people and threatening to shoot them Thursday afternoon.
Officers were sent to the scene on the city’s north side on a report of a person armed with a weapon, Officer William Young of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said in an impromptu news conference.
The male was “pointing a firearm at people (and) threatening to shoot them,” Young said. The situation then escalated into the police shooting.
The suspect was taken to a hospital, where he was listed in critical condition.
The police department said on X, formerly Twitter, that no officers were injured.
No additional information was immediately available.
