3 things to know if you share information with Crime Stoppers
Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana allows Indianapolis residents to share anonymous tips with law enforcement.
The motive behind a fatal shooting outside a liquor store on the east side of Indianapolis remains unclear, even after police spoke with several witnesses and arrested a man.
Curtis Page Jr., 45, is facing a preliminary charge of murder in connection with the shooting in the 5400 block of East 21st Street around 7 p.m. on Sunday. Officers were first called to the liquor store parking lot on a report of a vehicle crash, according to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
Investigators found a white pickup crashed into a black Nissan Altima. In the front passenger seat of the pickup police found 39-year-old Corey Reed with at least one gunshot wound on the left side of his head. Reed was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police spoke with the driver of the Nissan and other witnesses.
A man, later identified as Page, climbed across the cab of the truck from the driver’s seat after it crashed into the Nissan. Page then got out of the truck on the passenger side, dropped a gun on the ground and went into the liquor store, witnesses told police in the probable cause affidavit for Page’s arrest.
The manager of the liquor store stated she heard a pop then the vehicle crash outside in the parking lot. As she walked outside to see what was happening, Page walked into the liquor store and dropped two gun magazine clips, the woman said.
“(The liquor store manager) asked Mr. Page where the gun was and Mr. Page responded ‘outside,’” the affidavit reads. “(The liquor store manager) asked Mr. Page what was going on and Mr. Page told her that someone was trying to kill him.”
The woman walked outside and saw Reed was unresponsive inside the pickup. Page was shaking and pacing around the store until officers arrived and took him into custody, according to the affidavit.
Page was transported by police for an interview then requested an attorney before speaking with investigators. An attorney for Page was not yet listed in online court records before publication of this article.

It’s time to go racing in Indianapolis! Round nine of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross invades Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana for another night of Triple Crown racing. Points are still tight in both classes as we gear up for tonight’s gate drop. Only the top 18 riders head straight to the main event so the pressure is on for qualifying.
QUALIFYING
Eli Tomac is fresh off his eighth win at Daytona and carrying that momentum into qualifying today. He was fastest in both sessions today as he sets the pace with a 45.435. Justin Cooper looked up to the challenge as he was a close second overall, just 0.02 seconds off Tomac. The 450SX points leader, Hunter Lawrence clocked third overall with a 45.5. Jorge Prado returns to action this weekend in fourth overall with Cooper Webb rounding out the top five. The top eight riders all ran a 45-second lap which goes to show how close the racing will be tonight.

250SX
Just like the 450 class, last week’s winner is on top of the board once again. Seth Hammaker topped both sessions in the 250SX East division and leads the way before tonight’s three main events. Hammaker is actually the fastest rider in either class as his 45.1 is three-tenths better than Tomac’s time. Cole Davies grabbed second overall but was half a second off Hammaker. His whoop speed will certainly come into play as the track breaks down. Jo Shimoda jumped to third overall late in the second session and showed he can post a fast time even in the rutted conditions.

Congress debates ending Daylight Saving Time
Senators are working around the clock on the issue of whether to end the twice-a-year time changes for Daylight Saving Time.
Fox – Seattle
Daylight saving time begins on Sunday, March 8, with clocks springing forward. This means people will lose an hour of sleep, but daylight hours also will increase in Indiana until the clock falls back again in early November.
Here’s what to know about daylight saving time in 2026, and sunrise and sunset times for the Indianapolis area.
What day does daylight saving time begin? When do clocks spring forward?
In the U.S., daylight saving time begins when clocks officially spring forward at 2 a.m. Sunday, March 8, 2026.
Do I gain or lose an hour of sleep for daylight saving time at 2 a.m. on March 8, 2026?
We lose an hour of sleep when the clocks “spring forward” at the start of daylight saving time. At 2 a.m., clocks are turned ahead by one hour.
In the fall, when DST ends, clocks “fall back” an hour in November, meaning you gain an hour of sleep.
What time will the sun rise in Indianapolis? What time will it set?
After clocks spring forward March 8, the sun will rise in Indianapolis at around 8:06 a.m., according to Time and Date, and set at roughly 7:44 p.m.
By the end of the month, Hoosiers in Central Indiana will see sunrise at 7:30 a.m. and sunset as late as 8:07 p.m.
When is the longest day of the year? Summer solstice 2026
The longest day of the year is the summer solstice, which happens Sunday, June 21, 2026. For Indianapolis, the sun will rise at roughly 6:16 a.m. and set at around 9:16 p.m., giving Hoosiers almost 15 hours of daylight.
