2 adults dead, 2 teens injured in domestic dispute with weapon
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A man and a woman are dead, and two teens related to them were injured in a domestic disturbance involving a weapon on the city’s south side, Indianapolis police say.
The names of the people involved were not immediately being released.
Medics and Indianapolis Police Department officers were called at 9 p.m. Monday to an incomplete 911 call from a home in the 600 block of Watersonway Circle. That’s a street with homes in the Rahkewood Addition off Rahke Road. That’s northeast of the intersection of West Edgewood Avenue and Bluff Road.
Police arrived to hear gunshots being fired. Dispatchers were on the phone with a caller when that happened. IMPD did not say if one of the teens had called 911.
Later, officers found the two adults dead in the back yard of a home.
The man is believed to be a former reserve police officer in Indianapolis, IMPD says.
Police recovered a firearm at the shooting scene.
IMPD declined to say who might have been the shooter.
One teen was in critical condition, and the other was stable. IMPD did not give the teens’ ages or genders.
“This is an active crime scene and this investigation is ongoing and developing,” IMPD said in a notification to the media.
People were being asked to avoid the area. A social media message said, “The IMPD will be in the area with a large presence for an ongoing investigation.”
No additional details were immediately available.
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Scattered storms remain possible over the coming days. Some could be strong with heavy rain and gusty winds. Less humid air returns for a few days starting Friday.
TUESDAY EVENING/NIGHT:
The warm and humid air mass in place will support a continuing chance of showers & storms. Not everyone will get one… but if a storm forms it does have the potential to produce torrential rainfall, gusty winds, and perhaps some hail. Muggy lows in the lower 70s can be expected again.
WEDNESDAY:
Some morning showers, storms, and clouds are possible but the afternoon is looking like it’ll be downright sultry with highs around 90 and heat indices near 100. Southwesterly breezes 10-20 will ease the burden a bit, but be sure to take extra steps to stay cool and hydrated. The 30 year average date of the first 90 in Indianapolis is June 19th.
Model data suggest a storm complex or two may graze northern Indiana in the later part of the afternoon and evening. It’s too early to tell if this will affect Central Indiana or not.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT:
Warm and very humid conditions stick around. Look for another night with lows in the 70s. Once again, some data suggest that a batch of gusty storms could roll across Northern Indiana. That will be something to watch.
THURSDAY:
Warm, breezy, and very humid conditions hang around one more day. Highs near 90 with heat indices around 100 appear likely. While a shower or storm could pop anytime in the muggy air, most of the daylight hours should remain dry.
A cold front will push in from the west during the evening and overnight hours. This front will likely spark a line of strong to severe storms in Illinois. These storms will move towards Central Indiana, but they may be in a weakening phase prior to arrival here. We’ll just have to watching things evolve. The main severe threat in this setup would be damaging wind gusts it appears.
FRIDAY:
After an early day rain & storm chance, the majority of the day should be pretty nice with partly cloudy skies, warm highs in the 80s, but lower humidity levels. Any outdoor plans for Friday evening look great!
WEEKEND:
The pick day will be Saturday with plentiful sunshine, warmer temperatures, light winds, and reasonably dry air for a change. Humidity increases again for Sunday and that will lead to another chance of scattered rain & storms.
WASHINGTON (WISH) — Caitlin Clark hit a game-winning 31-foot three-point shot with 1.4 seconds remaining as the Fever beat the Mystics, 78-76.
The Fever were up by as many as 17 points in the third quarter, but the Mystics came all the way back to take the lead with 51 seconds remaining.
Kelsey Mitchell made a fastbreak layup off an assist from Clark with 11 seconds left and the Fever retook the lead. However, Mystics guard Sonia Citron knocked down two free throws after being fouled with four seconds left to put them up one point. Then, it was Clark’s game-winning three.
“We always think about ways we want to get better and we certainly crumbled a little bit and we would’ve liked to definitely have played the third a little bit better and not let them be back in the game, but this is a hard league to play in,” Clark said. “You take a win in whatever way you can get it. And when we go down the line here, nobody’s going to look back and be like, ‘Oh, well, the Fever probably should’ve lost this game but made a buzzer beater.’ No, it’s a W. It’s a win for us.”
The win moves the Fever to 2-1 in Commissioner’s Cup games.
Clark led the team with 19 points. Kelsey Mitchell (15 points) and Aliyah Boston (14 points) also scored in double figures.
Next up for the Fever is a home matchup against the Chicago Sky. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Thursday.
The Indianapolis Colts kick off their three-day mandatory minicamp on Tuesday following the conclusion of their voluntary organized team activities (OTAs) period, which wrapped late last week.
With the second wave of NFL free agency underway, where do the Colts stand in terms of positional spending for the 2026-27 season? Colts On SI breaks down their place amongst the rest of the league on offense, defense, and special teams.
After already covering the offensive side of the ball, this article will cover both the defense and special teams when it comes to positional spending compared to the rest of the league.
Without further ado, let’s take a look at how many resources the Colts are spending on its defense (and special teams unit).
Note: All numbers reflected are cap hits via Spotrac.
Defense – $132.34 million (No. 8 in the NFL)
The Indianapolis Colts are spending the 8th-most among all NFL teams on their defense for the upcoming season.
General manager Chris Ballard is going as all-in as possible for Lou Anarumo’s defense, and with the 7th-most cap space remaining ($31.9 million), he could continue strengthening the defensive roster by adding a proven veteran before the regular season arrives.
EDGE – $15.22 million, 4.93% of the cap (No. 26)
The Colts’s defensive end room is made up of players on rookie contracts who are expected to take the next step in Laiatu Latu and Jaylahn Tuimoloau, veteran rotational pieces in Arden Key and Michael Clemons, and rookies who have yet to step foot on an NFL field in Day 3 (rounds 4-7) picks George Gumbs Jr. and Caden Curry.
Still, the four non-rookies in question each have a 2026 cap numbers that sits in the 12-22 range as far as most expensive hits go. The Colts aren’t skipping out on adding a big-time contributor, but rather are betting on Latu to emerge into stardom.
General manager Chris Ballard could (and probably should) add another veteran edge defender to the mix before the regular season arrives, but as of now the Colts are prepared to move forward with their rotation as is.
Defensive Tackle – $47.64 million, 15.43% of the cap (No. 9)
The Colts’ defensive tackle room is as strong as its been in the Ballard era thanks to its new-look depth behind the star duo of DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart.
The 32-year-old duo of Buckner and Stewart has held down the interior defensive line for the past several seasons, and now post two of the biggest cap hits on the roster. Buckner’s $26.6 million cap hit is the team’s biggest number, while Stewart’s $14.25 million hit is the 7th-most and is the last year of his current deal.
Meanwhile, fourth-year tackle Adetomiwa Adebawore has blossomed into a legitimate pass rusher, and newcomer Colby Wooden, whom the Colts got in return for longtime leader Zaire Franklin, is expected to be the best depth the aforementioned duo has had since they teamed up ahead of the 2020 season.
Linebacker – $15.90 million, 5.15% of the cap (No. 25)
As expected, the Colts are paying pennies for its linebacker room this season. This comes after a full-blown overhaul of the position room, a strategic effort that resulted in the Colts adding youth and speed to its front seven.
Second-round pick CJ Allen is expected to be Lou Anarumo’s green dot as a rookie, while veteran Akeem Davis-Gaither, third-year player Jaylon Carlies, and rookie Bryce Boettcher will battle it out for the WILL linebacker role.
Davis-Gaither’s $2.725 million cap hit is the highest number of the room, whereas Allen’s $1.659 million cap hit is second.
Cornerback – $41.72 million, 13.51% of the cap (No. 5)
General manager Chris Ballard traded the farm for superstar cornerback Sauce Gardner at the 2025 trade deadline to pair alongside Charvarius Ward Sr., and now the star-studded duo is poised to continue what they started in their two games together in 2025.
Like the duo of DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart, Gardner and Ward both have Top 10 cap hits for the 2026 season. Ward’s cap hit is the third-most on the team at $19.89 million, a jump back to typical AAV after his first year with the Colts was just $9 million.
Gardner’s first full season with the Colts will operate simliarly to Ward’s, as his 9th-biggest cap number in 2026 ($9.5 million) will soon replicate his actual value when his cap numbers will more than double after this season. The Colts are able to employ such a star-studded duo thanks to this minor cap manipulation, and now they hope the pairing will take them the distance.
Safety – $27.76 million, 8.99% of the cap (No. 6)
The Colts let Nick Cross walk in free agency to replace him via an aggregate of players, but they’re still paying top dollar thanks to Cam Bynum’s presence in the defensive backfield.
Bynum’s $15 million cap hit for 2026 is the 6th-highest number on the roster, but the Colts are more than happy to pay a premium for the luxury that is him leading the charge from the backend.
Indianapolis is anticipating third-round pick safety A.J. Haulcy to ultimatley earn the opening at strong safety, but second-year defender Hunter Wohler and veteran safety Juanyeh Thomas won’t make it easy on him.
Special Teams – $6.73 million (No. 14 in the NFL)
Kicker – $2.57 million, 0.83% of the cap (No. 15)
Punter – $2.55 million, 0.83% of the cap (No. 10)
Long Snapper – $1.61 million, 0.52% of the cap (No. 10)
It’s impressive that the Colts are only paying the 15th-most at the kicker position, considering they’re currently rostering two placekickers, both of whom were near-perfect on field goal attempts during their respective runs with the team last season.
Spencer Shrader is expected to earn his job back after having his season ended early with a complete ACL/MCL tear, but Blake Grupe is just as determined to continue his upward trajectory with the team that gave him his most recent opportunity.
There’s not much else to be said about punter Rigoberto Sanchez and long snapper Luke Rhodes other than suggesting that they might even be underpaid relative to how much others across the league are making. I’d argue each is at least top five at their respective positions, so keeping them both around at the 10th-highest rate is a big win.
