INDIANAPOLIS There is a community response underway about a chaotic scene that played out Saturday during a funeral on Indy s northwest side.
Emergency crews responded to 911 calls about multiple people injured by gunfire outside a funeral home not far from the church where Rev. Charles Harrison has been a pastor for years. I thought I heard gunshots, Harrison said.
The gunshots were just a few blocks away from Harrison s church, so he went to investigate what he heard only to stumble upon a chaotic scene. He immediately recognized some of his own church members who were attending the funeral.
