The FBI says one of Indiana's biggest problems is keeping guns out of the hands of criminals and juveniles.
"Gun violence is at the top of mind for all law enforcement agencies right now," Herbert J. Stapleton, FBI Special Agent in Charge said.
"Clearly the crimes we've seen lately for example the two police officers that were shot recently one in Elwood and Richmond. Both of the shooters were convicted felons, prohibited people. So, I think that's a demonstration that it's a huge problem here," AFT Special Agent in Charge, Daryl McCormick said.
The Indiana Crime Guns Task Force, which is a combination of metro police, state police, the ATF, Fishers and surrounding agencies has taken 369 guns off the street since July 2021 and arrested nearly 400 people."Usually guns are used twice in crimes. We had guns used 20 times in some incidents. The guns tend to be traded or handed off across the city," IMPD Assistant Chief Chris Bailey said."It continues to be a challenge.
"Indiana Crime Guns Task Force was dealing with recently an individual that is prohibited from carrying a firearm that was in a house. In that house had others who weren't prohibited. So, that was an interesting place we found ourselves in," Adams said.
