Officers from IMPD Northwest District cruised into an ice cream social in a neighborhood they patrol. The officers showed neighborhood children the police cars and gave them stickers! After that, of course they enjoyed some delicious ice cream sundaes. 🍦😋

Officer Waterman from the IMPD Northwest District stopped by the Pilgrim Missionary Baptist Church picnic at Riverside Park. Each kid at the picnic got the opportunity to explore the police car and were given an IMPD sticker badge!

This morning I sat alongside gun violence survivors, advocates for common sense gun safety & Indianapolis community organizations all working towards a safer Indiana 🧡

Just got pulled over by the local police for a traffic violation. TOTALLY my fault. Brain lapse.
For reasons beyond the scope of this tweet, my windows don’t roll down so I had to SLOWLY open the door.
And it reminded me of how dangerous policing is. These men and women are a hair’s length away from death or serious injury with every traffic stop and 911 call.
The officer was an absolute professional and couldn’t have been kinder.
Also, a big thanks to all of the men and women in blue for having the balls to do this tough job.
It was a beautiful morning for the @SOIndiana Law Enforcement Torch Run.
IMPD officers raised funds then participated in a 3-mile run alongside Special Olympic athletes throughout downtown #Indy.
Thanks to all who participated & cheered us on along the way!
The Indianapolis Fire Department is beyond excited to have taken delivery of 12 @PierceMfg Enforcer Pumpers. These engines will replace the current ones at IFD stations 2, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 19, 25, 43, 44 & 46 as part of the 103 piece front line contingent.
Happy National Police week to my
💙blue💙family -the brave men & women of @Fishers_Police, @CarmelPD & @IMPDnews
Join me tonight at 8pm in @FishersIN at Liberty Plaza for a candlelight vigil in memory of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice
In the past three days, fifteen police officers have been shot in America. This surge in violence against law enforcement underscores a critical issue, signaling a dire need for your support. It's time to voice your concerns to local elected officials, many of whom are not addressing this crisis effectively.
How many officers must be killed before our leaders take decisive action? How much bloodshed is necessary before they declare that enough is enough?
This violence is a blemish on our societal fabric, marked tragically by the blood of those sworn to protect us.

The law is now clear: If you're selling firearms, including at a gun show or online, you are presumed to be engaged in the business of dealing guns. If you’re engaged in the business of dealing guns, you need to be licensed & if you’re licensed, you need to run background checks
🎶 Take me out to the ballgame 🎶
At the Ben Davis Little League season opener this morning, our IMPD Northwest District CRU was in attendance and handed out NW District water bottles to the young ball players before the games began.
Let's play ball! ⚾️

During roll call, our IMPD Northwest District middle shift officers were inspired by a motivational speech from Olympic gold medalist and sprint star Justin Gatlin. 🥇🇺🇸
Thank you, Justin Gatlin, for taking the time to talk to our officers.
