SPEEDWAY, Ind. — The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is putting out a warning after discovering some people are selling counterfeit parking passes for the Indianapolis 500 online.

Police are investigating the crime and leaders at the track want to make sure fans don't get scammed.

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) is warning fans about fake parking passes for the Indy 500. Hundreds of fake parking passes were sold online last year and the problem has returned.

At the gates of the track, IMS has taken away more than a dozen fake parking passes, turning away fans who unknowingly purchased them. To avoid buying used or counterfeit tickets and parking passes, IMS recommends that fans only purchase from authorized sources.

It’s also important to note that all parking is sold out inside the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the Indy 500. Fans should be aware of scammers selling fake tickets and parking passes, as they will not be accepted at the gate.

In addition to purchasing from authorized sources, fans should also be wary of buying tickets or parking passes secondhand. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway wants to ensure that everyone attending the Indy 500 has a safe and enjoyable experience. By being aware of potential scams and only purchasing from trusted sources, fans can help make sure that happens.

 The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department will no longer send firearms kept for safekeeping to a lab for testing, according to a new policy.

The move was made in response to an investigation that revealed the department provided data to the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for inclusion in a national database and sent every single gun to the ballistic lab for testing.

Second Amendment advocate and gun rights attorney Mark Nicholson stated, "This change will dramatically impact anyone that had their guns taken by IMPD. Additionally, the city and county may face several lawsuits, including a potential class action lawsuit from people who think they have been wrongfully denied possession of their firearms."

A new bill unanimously passed by Indiana Republicans and Democrats alike will prohibit cops from lying to children as part of interrogation efforts to secure confessions.

Senate Bill 415 passed through the Indiana Senate on Monday with a 48-0 vote after previously making its rounds through both the House and Senate. The bill will now be sent along to Governor Eric Holcomb’s desk where it will await being signed into law.

The new legislation states that any statement made by a juvenile during a police interrogation would be inadmissible in court if the juvenile is under the age of 18 and has been knowingly lied to by a police officer.

Two officers were recently indicted in the death of Herman Whitfield III. Now the Indianapolis Fraternal Order of Police is calling on police officers to no longer respond to mental health disturbances.

Mr. Whitfield apparently was killed by when police were called to his parent’s house on April 25, 2022. He was having a mental health crisis which led to his parents calling 911 for assistance. At one point, he was handcuffed, on the ground and said "I can't breathe."

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department has thousands of guns in its property room.

The police department sends every single gun to the ballistic lab for testing. The data is sent to the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for entry into a national database. They do this without a search warrant or probable cause, making this decades-old practice a violation of your Fourth Amendment in my opinion.
