Community leader, IMPD leaders react to shooting that injured 7 young people in downtown Indianapolis"Where do seven people get shot at one time...other than a war zone? This is a crisis," said Olgen Williams, a west side community organizer and former Indianapolis deputy mayor."Do you know where your child is at 10 p.m. at night? Do you know where he or she is at? Do you know? You should know.

IMPD leaders echoed that thought just a few hours at the shooting March 30 near West Maryland and South Illinois streets. "We would ask that parents get involved in what their children are doing, especially at these hours in the evening," said IMPD Deputy Chief Tanya Terry."This was 11:30 at night. So if you don't know where your 12-year-old is I think that should be a priority for you.""We ought to look at a youth curfew in Marion County to help protect the youth themselves and our community," said Williams.
