1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel. Do you believe these characters are weirdo?

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: You know?

3
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 3: Hammer? I wake up, I turn on the TV and

4
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 3: see the headlines of a triple shooting. Not only a

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 3: triple shooting, a triple homicide, and on the city's northwest side.

6
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:23,159
Speaker 3: All sides of Indianapolis are hotspots. I believe at this

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 3: point some more than others. But I have family that

8
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 3: live in this area. And the shooting was I don't know,

9
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 3: guy on road near thirty eighth Street and man. Two

10
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 3: of the victims dead at the scene, third taking a

11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 3: critical condition. Detectives say it started as a fight between

12
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 3: two groups of people.

13
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: It just started as a fight.

14
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, a fight that turns into guns. You know, who

15
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 3: knows what the fight was about. I could only speculate,

16
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 3: and I could probably narrow it down into just a

17
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 3: few different things.

18
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 4: And with that, knowing the folks involved here, you know me, Nije,

19
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 4: I'm a gambler. I'm willing to bet a lot of

20
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 4: the folks involved here probably couldn't legally have a gun

21
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 4: in the first place. So you're gonna hear the people

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,919
Speaker 4: say gun violence, gun violence. It's the guns, it's the people,

23
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 4: it's the perpetrators.

24
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: It is the shooters.

25
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 4: They would have got the gun anywhere, right if guns

26
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 4: were illegal, they still would have found a way to

27
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 4: get him. Cocaine is illegal, people find cocaine. Drugs are illegal.

28
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 4: People finding drugs easier now than they ever have. It's

29
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 4: not the gun, it's the perpetrator.

30
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 3: And the bullets hit other homes and cars in the area.

31
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 3: Nobody was hurt. Well, I accept the three dead people.

32
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 3: So right now investigators don't know what led to the gunfire.

33
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 3: They're staying a fight and they're asking neighbors to speak up.

34
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 3: I'm assuming that means they don't have the perpetrator the shooter.

35
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: Correct. According to the eye.

36
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 4: Anybody with information in regards to this triple homicide last

37
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 4: night is being asked to contact the IMPD. You can

38
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 4: reach them at three one seven three two seven thirty

39
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 4: four seventy five. And here is one of the captains,

40
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 4: Rob Ryder, talking about this just grizzly crime scene last night.

41
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 2: This is just simply a tragic act of violence tonight

42
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: is unnecessary act of violence. And the thing is is,

43
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 2: not only does this violence impact of victims, think about

44
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 2: the families in this community now that has to go

45
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 2: through this ordeal in their streets. It's just really unfortunate

46
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 2: that there's a small part of our community that just

47
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 2: doesn't regard human life.

48
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's real unfortunate that there are certain spots,

49
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 3: hot spots. I think this from all I know, this

50
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 3: neighborhood or whatever. This took place over on the northwest side.

51
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 3: Guy And Road is pretty quiet, right, But there are

52
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: other spots that people do with this every night. I'm

53
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: not saying they deal with you know, triple honicides every night,

54
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 3: but shootings, gunfire going off every night? Oh? Is that

55
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 3: gunfire or fire ragers?

56
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: Right?

57
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 3: Is that a gun shot that just pierced my house.

58
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: Or my car?

59
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 3: I couldn't imagine living like that.

60
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: It sucks.

61
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 3: I feel horrible for those people.

62
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 4: So that took place on the northwest side. And then

63
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 4: this morning, early this afternoon rather another deadly shooting on

64
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 4: the southwest side. So there's at least four killings in

65
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: just over a twelve hour span here in Indianapolis.

66
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 3: Don't do they have the shooter there?

67
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 2: You know?

68
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: I just think it's it gives me chills. The hair

69
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 3: on the back of my neck stands up. That somebody

70
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 3: that killed three people is out walking around right now

71
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 3: with the capability in your mind to be able to

72
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: pull the trigger several times and kill three people and

73
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 3: then just able to go about your day. Maybe it

74
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: is a day job who knows he or she and

75
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 3: just go on and act like everything.

76
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 1: I don't know that.

77
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 3: Look, I don't know the circumstances. I don't know anything

78
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 3: about it. I'm just speculating at this point. But the

79
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: fact doesn't it give you pause that these people are

80
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: walking amongst us?

81
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 4: Absolutely it does. Does it make you feel any better? Though, Like,

82
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 4: let's go back to the triple homicide last night. These

83
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 4: were two groups fighting each other. It wasn't like it

84
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 4: was a home invasion where somebody was sitting there watching

85
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 4: a ballgame with their kids in the front door got

86
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 4: kicked in.

87
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: It seemed like this was they know each other.

88
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 3: It doesn't make that's a good question. It doesn't make

89
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 3: me feel better because of the neighbors and the bullet

90
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 3: holes in cars and random houses and just kind of

91
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: the haphazard way that it all led to three deaths, right,

92
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 3: That doesn't make me feel good at all. And that's again,

93
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 3: three people dead. I don't I I don't know anything

94
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 3: about them. I don't know their names, I don't know

95
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 3: their situation, I don't know their backgrounds.

96
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be honest with you, and maybe this makes

97
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 4: me a horrible person. Okay, if these folks knew each

98
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 4: other and there were some sort of beef and they

99
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 4: shot each other, I feel I gotta be honest better

100
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 4: about that. Then say I'm at the gas pump and

101
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 4: somebody comes by and starts sniping people, or.

102
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 3: You just got off your job at ups. Exactly why

103
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: somebody shoots you dead?

104
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: Exactly?

105
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: I get your point. I totally give it.

106
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: Also here in Ndy, the folks that want America Financial

107
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 4: working remotely today. They didn't go into detail, but they

108
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 4: said there was a safety concern that closed their office. Now,

109
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 4: this was confirmed to our news gathering partners at WISH

110
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 4: TV eight one. America's media and communications manager did not

111
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 4: give any information about the concern, but they said it

112
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 4: was worth having everybody work remotely today.

113
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: So what do we make of this?

114
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 3: One America's media and external communications manager to not go

115
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: into detail about the concerns. I would be if I

116
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 3: were an employee of the America I'd be like, no,

117
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 3: tell me what happened, Tell me what's going on?

118
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: And maybe they have been told.

119
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: We as the public just don't know. Maybe I would

120
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: I would think, I mean, it's a big company. I

121
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 3: would think it would be leaked. The reason why they didn't,

122
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 3: but they didn't go into detail about the safety concerned.

123
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: But no, you're right, You're right.

124
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 3: They could just you know, have told the employees and

125
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 3: nobody else. But I just again, that kind of stuff

126
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 3: gets out right, you know what I mean?

127
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 4: The official statement was quote out of an abundance of

128
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,799
Speaker 4: caution and concern for the employees in the Indianapolis office,

129
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 4: One America Financial Office will be closed on Tuesday, which

130
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 4: is today, So some sort of threat came in. They

131
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 4: viewed it serious enough to tell everybody at One America

132
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 4: to stay home today.

133
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: Well, you said threat, I was it a threat? Was

134
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: it a gas leak?

135
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 3: What I would want to know if I was an

136
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 3: employee before I and I want to know if that concern,

137
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 3: that safety concern had been rectified before I stepped foot

138
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 3: back in that building.

139
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: Good point,
