Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Sunday, October twenty-sixth.

We wake up to a cloudy start with cool morning temps in the mid-40s, but by midday we should see a burst of sunshine and enjoy highs in the low 60s. That means folks heading downtown or out to Lucas Oil Stadium for tailgating can expect a classic fall afternoon, just a touch cooler as night falls back into the 40s. Rain isn’t on the radar for today, but we’ll be watching a storm system aiming for us later next week, so enjoy this dry Sunday while it lasts.

In breaking news, police are investigating an early morning shooting near Washington Street and Girls’ School Road. Two men remain in critical condition, and notably, several children were present in the home at the time. Officers are still searching for the suspect and canvassing neighbors for doorbell camera footage, saying recent cases have benefited greatly from community video assistance. Please keep an eye out for updates and check on loved ones in the area.

Turning to city hall, public notices confirm the Common Council approved new development resolutions this past week, which could mean fresh investment and updates for longtime neighborhoods, especially around Brookside and Irvington. Watch for more news on land use and redevelopment plans that may change traffic and property usage in coming months.

Shifting gears to real estate, our local agents report around six hundred new listings citywide over the last week, but inventory is still tight. Median home prices in Indianapolis sit near two hundred seventy thousand dollars, and first-time buyers should be aware that competitive offers are happening especially in Broad Ripple, Fountain Square, and the west side.

The job market continues a steady climb, highlighted by several new roles posted with the City of Indianapolis and Marion County, including internal attorney and zoning positions. If you’re searching for something new, public sector work remains a reliable option, and young professionals should look out for expanding opportunities in logistics and healthcare, with several clinics and logistics companies currently hiring.

Our downtown scene welcomes the grand opening of Rise and Roll Bakery on Mass Ave this weekend, while beloved staple Crispina’s Café is closing its doors on East Washington after thirty years. Locals are invited today for free coffee and a proper farewell.

For music lovers, there’s a jazz showcase tonight at the Vogue in Broad Ripple, and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra kicks off its fall series downtown Tuesday evening. Also, the Circle City Classic brings high school bands from across Central Indiana to compete at Victory Field this afternoon.

Sports fans, our Indiana Hoosiers football team cruised past UCLA in yesterday’s noon game, dominating with a final score of fifty-six to six at Memorial Stadium. Indiana now stands at eight wins, still undefeated in the Big Ten. Meanwhile, the Pacers are gearing up for their next home game, though Bennedict Mathurin is sidelined due to a foot injury.

Schools had a big week, too—shout out to the North Central High School robotics team for placing third at their regional tournament and to Cathedral High for clinching a close win in yesterday’s soccer playoff.

In a touching moment yesterday at Brookside Park, nearly thirty neighbors gathered for the funeral of an abandoned baby whose remains were discovered two months ago. The outpouring of support proved the strength and compassion within our community.

A final look at today’s public safety alerts—a crash on I-69 near the Sample Road interchange claimed one life and sent another person to the hospital with serious injuries. Indiana State Police urge drivers to slow down and stay vigilant with rain forecast later this week.
