The race isn’t till Sunday…
A driver was stopped today after an officer conducting speed enforcement in the 5000 block of N Keystone Ave measured his speed at 76 mph in the posted 35 mph speed limit zone. This stretch of Keystone Ave is identified as a High Injury Network by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization, and IMPD is cracking down on speeding and red light runners in the area.
The driver was placed under arrest for reckless driving, and his car was towed. Let’s save the speeds for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and IndyCar drivers! Be safe and have an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend.

IMPD officers recently joined youth at the Avondale Meadows YMCA for our annual kickball game. Many laughs were had; but more importantly, officers and youth were able to come together in a fun, casual setting to build relationships.
Service as a police officer takes many different forms. Watch how these North District officers went above and beyond to help a woman in need.
This driver was in such a hurry to get where they were going that they ran a red light... right in front of an IMPD officer.🚨
Now they’re getting there much later and with a citation that costs a lot more than a few extra seconds at the light.🚦
Slow down. Drive smart. It’s not worth it.

On Sunday, March 15, 2026, at approximately 08:50 PM, North District middle shift officers were dispatched to the Longhorn Steakhouse, located at 5910 East 82nd Street, on a report of a person shot. IMPD Officers arrived to find a hectic scene but quickly gathered intelligence regarding descriptions and direction of travel of individuals potentially involved.
While this was occurring, Officer Rafael Moura III was approaching the dispatched location. Officer Moura, a veteran officer, digested the influx of information over the radio. Officer Moura also took note of his immediate surroundings, believing the individuals could not have traveled too far with the given information. Officer Moura went with his gut and began canvasing the dark surroundings. As a result, he located three persons of interest that were hunkered down inside of a wall inlet. This inlet was approximately 900 feet East of the Longhorn Steakhouse. Officer Moura believed this was odd behavior, and immediately radioed that he had located the individuals. Officer Moura gave the location and asked for more units to assist in detaining them. All three were detained for further investigation by the Homicide Unit.
Officer Moura began checking nearby and made note of a backpack in the immediate area. The bag was later found to contain evidence.
Without Officer Moura’s keen observation skills, important evidence and persons of interest may not have been located. His calm demeanor and veteran experience led to the safe detention of persons of interest. For his excellent police work, Officer Moura III is North District Officer of the Month for March 2026.

Last night, one of our North District officers was shot in the line of duty, and an officer-involved shooting occurred. Fortunately, our officer is in stable condition. Incidents like this impact not just the officers, but their families, friends, and colleagues as well. We’re keeping all of them in our thoughts, and appreciate your support as they process this trauma.
