Saved by the BUG...

Things got sporty out on Indy's east side last night, with the city's fourteenth officer-involved shooting of 2023 happening in a Burger King near 21st and Shadeland.

A dude ran from the cops and ducked into the fast food joint. The po-po followed him inside...
"Two officers found the man near the bathroom in the Burger King. Each officer reportedly grabbed one of the man's arms it an attempt to place him into handcuffs. A struggle ensued and the officers and suspect ended up on the ground.

At some point, Bailey said, the suspect grabbed the officer's service weapon and a shot was fired from that gun, allegedly by the suspect. That shot struck a male officer in the leg. The officer grabbed his secondary weapon and shot the suspect at least once. "When he grabbed the officer's weapon and disarmed it, he said, 'You're going to die,' or something like that," Bailey said.
"


It's a good thing the officer carried a backup gun and that he was able to access it. You'll notice the fight started with everybody standing up, but quickly went to the ground before the gunplay even started.
