INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — One person is dead and another is being held for questioning after a fatal Friday morning shooting on the city’s near north side, Indianapolis police said.

Just after 4:10 a.m., Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers responded to a shooting on Capitol Avenue off of 29th Street.

Upon arrival, officers found a man who had been shot. He was pronounced dead at the scene, IMPD says.

A person of interest was detained, but police did not say if they are a suspect.

Southbound Capitol Avenue from 30th to 28th Street is closed for investigation.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — With temperatures in the teens and lower quickly approaching Indianapolis, it’s time to think about the safety of our furry friends.

Temperatures are set to drop below 20 degrees starting Saturday, and experts say it’s crucial to bring pets inside to avoid life-threatening conditions.

Patty Spitler, host of “Pet Pals TV,” and Darcie Kurtz, executive director of Friends of Indianapolis Dogs Outside (FIDO), stopped by News 8 “Midday” on Thursday to talk about what pet owners need to know during colder temperatures.

Spitler said about pet owners who don’t take responsible actions, “We’re doing what we can to correct it. There are ordinances we need to talk about, and, if you see something, you can do something. Don’t handle it yourself, but make sure you call the right people.”

Kurtz laid out some important facts. An ordinance in Indianapolis prohibits leaving dogs outside when the temperature hits 20 degrees or below, and it’s not just a suggestion — it’s a matter of safety. Dogs need to be brought into a temperature-controlled space kept between 40 and 80 degrees.

“Cold weather is coming fast, and pet owners need to be proactive,” Kurtz said. “If dogs are left out in these conditions, the outcome can be deadly.”

Short-haired breeds like pit bulls are particularly vulnerable to the cold. FIDO has helped countless dogs in dire situations, including some who tragically froze to death. But, it’s not just the extreme cases. Even less severe exposure to cold weather can cause harm.

Spitler also pointed out that while some breeds like Bernese Mountain Dogs are more tolerant of the cold, they still need to come inside eventually.

For people who can’t bring their pets indoors, Kurtz recommends providing insulated doghouses with straw bedding and a cover over the entrance if the temperature is between 20 and 40 degrees.

For anyone who sees a dog left outside in dangerous cold conditions, Kurtz shared a few tips on how to help: “Wait about 30 minutes to see if the situation persists. Look for signs that the dog is living outside — food bowls, water bowls, a doghouse. If it’s clear the dog is being neglected, report it.”

Indianapolis Animal Care Services is responsible for enforcement. You can submit an online report or call the Mayor’s Action Center at 317-327-4622.

FIDO also offers assistance. Reach them at 317-221-1314. FIDO is open from noon to 3 p.m. Sunday for dog owners in need of assistance.

Kurtz shared that FIDO has been doing this important work for almost 20 years. It provides resources to help pet owners bring their dogs inside, avoiding the need for the ordinance’s enforcement.

Also on Thursday’s “Daybreak” segment, Spitler surprised Kurtz with one of her books, with all proceeds going to rescues and shelters.

“Pet Pals TV” every Saturday at 10:30 a.m. with more tips on how to care for your pets.

Below is the seven-day forecast for Indianapolis, issued on Jan. 2, 2025.

The Indianapolis Colts complete their season when the Jacksonville Jaguars visit in NFL Week 18.

The Colts (8-9) were eliminated from playoff contention last weekend in a 45-33 loss to the New York Giants. The Jaguars (4-12) have one win outside the AFC South. Jacksonville got its first win of the season in Week 5, 37-34 over Indianapolis.

Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson (back, foot) may return after missing the Giants game. Mac Jones has led Jacksonville in the wake of a Trevor Lawrence shoulder injury.

The Jaguars enter the finale with the No. 5 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, though there are five 4-12 teams. The Colts stand 12th in the draft order, but there are two other 7-9 teams.

NFL Week 18 picks, predictions: Indianapolis Colts vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

Gregg Doyel, IndyStar: What’s the point?

“The Colts will win, unless it’s the Jaguars. Like it matters.”

Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk: Colts 23-10

“How bad are the Colts? Lose this one, and the answer is, ‘Pretty bad.’”

Pete Prisco, CBS Sports: Colts 27-14

“This is a game featuring two teams playing for nothing. The Colts were awful in losing to the Giants last week. Jacksonville beat the Titans, but big deal. When two bad teams play with nothing at stake, take the home team. Colts win it.”

Brent Sobleski, Bleacher Report: Colts 30-21

“Snapping a three-game skid against a division rival may not be enough to save anyone, but the Colts have clearly reached a crossroads where owner Jim Irsay could go in any direction. General manager Chris Ballard, members of the coaching staff and plenty of the roster need this victory to try and somewhat calm the waters. Desperation is a powerful incentive.”

Tom Blair, NFL.com: Colts 24-21

“This one has caused me more stress than I thought it would. I almost went with the Jaguars, entranced by their steady-eddy mediocrity behind Mac Jones, and indeed could still swap in an entire blurb here justifying that choice. Over the past five games, Jacksonville has basically performed at replacement level, going 2-3 while generating yardage and point differentials close to zero (plus-39 and minus-4, respectively). Jones and Co. don’t get too high, they don’t get too low and they seem to always be within one score of winning. We can’t say the same for Indy, especially if Joe Flacco (who is 0-3 with a TD-to-INT ratio of 4:6 over his past three games) ends up starting again for Anthony Richardson. This is about where I was going to originally end my take — until I thought longer about the lift Jonathan Taylor (who missed Flacco’s narrow loss to Jacksonville in Week 5) can provide, and further weighed the likelihood that the Jaguars can sweep a second AFC South opponent (after going 2-0 against Tennessee) with a win on the road. So instead, I have talked myself into backing a messy former fringe contender by writing way too many words about a Week 18 game between two sub-.500 teams.”

Bill Bender, Sporting News: Colts 31-22

“The Colts were eliminated from playoff contention after a shocking loss to the Giants in Week 17. The Jaguars are in contention for the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Is a Week 18 shootout between Mac Jones and Joe Flacco just what we needed? The Colts have won five of the past six home meetings.”

Marcus Mosher, 33rd Team: Colts 24-17

“It’s impossible to know how (the Colts) will play in Week 18 after such a massive disappointment. But the Jacksonville Jaguars are far from a juggernaut with Mac Jones as the quarterback. Take the Colts to have some pride and get a win in Week 18, but don’t expect this to be a pretty victory, either.”

Pro Football Network: 2 picks for the Colts, 3 for the Jaguars

“It’ll be interesting to see Shane Steichen’s reception from fans Sunday after the Colts’ playoff hopes died in North Jersey last week. The Jaguars are playing for draft positioning in what could be head coach Doug Pederson’s final game.”

Gerry Dulac, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: Colts 15-11

“The Colts keep finding ways to lose playoff-implication games, and it doesn’t get any more embarrassing than allowing 45 points to the Giants. It’s the third time in four years the Colts have lost a game that could have propelled them into the postseason.”

Anthony Richardson has completed 47.7% of his passes for 1,814 yards, 8 touchdowns and 14 interceptions; he has run for 499 yards (5.8 per) and 6 TDs. Joe Flacco has completed 66.8% of his throws for 1,497 yards, 11 TDs and 7 INTs.
