Tryin' that in a small town.

Things got pretty sporty in downtown Greenfield, Indiana over the weekend. A teen got hisself popped and Life-Flighted to Indianapolis, another teen is in custody.
Greenfield police have been investigating a case involving firearms and drugs in the community. Police are working to learn if the two juveniles are connected to that case.

"Since June 26th, 2023 we've been investigating a group of individuals, mainly juveniles, related to the buying and selling of guns and drugs here in the city of Greenfield," said Greenfield Police Chief Brian Hartman. "Since the investigation has started, we've taken six illegal guns off the street, served over 20 search warrants and have made 8-10 arrests including both juveniles and adults."


This didn't happen in a convenience store parking lot in a "bad part of town" at two in the AM. It happened at 4:30 in the afternoon on a summer Sunday, right across the street from the big park in the middle of Greenfield, which straddles U.S. 40, the "Main Street of America" in the cornfields east of Indianapolis.
