The Broad Ripple Village Association has requested the city to make the neighborhood a gun-free zone on Friday and Saturday nights through the end of August, after two people were shot dead and two were injured early Sunday morning on Broad Ripple Avenue.
Shortly after 2 a.m. June 25, police found four people with gunshot wounds on Broad Ripple Avenue. Now neighborhood leaders want to make the area gun-free.
Following fatal shootings early Sunday, Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett said the city would work with the Broad Ripple Village Association to create a temporary gun-free zone in the village's entertainment district.
