A quick-moving low pressure system could bring more snow to Indianapolis this weekend, the National Weather Service predicts.

A few flurries and patches of freezing rain are expected Saturday before noon. The rest of the day will be cloudy with a high of 34 degrees.

Overnight, temperatures will drop to 26 degrees. Snow will begin to fall in the early hours of Sunday morning, ending at around 10 a.m. before turning to a wintry mix.

Forecasters don’t expect much of the weekend’s snow to stick. Andrew White, an NWS meteorologist, said Indianapolis might see half an inch of accumulation on Sunday morning.

Sunday night will be bitterly cold, with a low of 14 degrees and wind chills near zero. A sunny Monday will only heat up to about 25 degrees, and wind chills will reduce that into the teens.

CLINTON COUNTY, Ind.–An Indianapolis man accused of shooting two Kirklin Town Marshals in Clinton County last month was arrested on Thursday.

In an update Friday afternoon, State Police said 29-year-old Jehrome Bowens was arrested and charged with attempted murder, battery by means of a deadly weapon, theft, and unlawful carrying of a handgun.

Bowens was released from a hospital in Indianapolis area hospital on Thursday and immediately taken to the Clinton County Jail.

The incident happened on November 18 when a Clinton County deputy conducted a traffic stop on State Road 29. The Kirklin Town Marshal’s Office assisted the deputy during the stop.

State Police say it was Bowens who fired a handgun at the officers and hit the two Kirklin marshals. One of the marshals had to be taken to a hospital. The other marshal was hit, but was wearing a bullet-resistant vest, which prevented injury.

There were four adults and one child in a vehicle where the traffic stop happened. One adult was hit by gunfire and had to be taken to a hospital, but survived. Two other adults and the child were not injured.

INDIANAPOLIS — A coalition of different Indy-based organizations, including the Central Indiana Democratic Socialists of America (CINDSA), Concerned Clergy of Indianapolis, the Indianapolis Education Association and the Indianapolis Public Schools Parent Council, announced their support for “The People’s Proposal for a Voice and a Choice” at a press conference on Thursday.

The ‘People’s Proposal’ encourages ILEA to prioritize voice and choice for IPS

“The voice part comes from retaining a fully elected democratic board, one that serves all of us. The choice part comes from preserving school choice, which IPS has done a phenomenal job of with their zones, and the Montessori schools and the IB schools,” Co-Chair of the Fully Funded, Fully Public Campaign, a standing committee of Central Indiana Democratic Socialists of America Adrea McCloud said.

“My heart is too big. I love my students just as much as I love my own children. Thinking about the possibility of disruptions of losing their school, losing their community. That terrifies me,” McCloud said.

“We’re deeply concerned about some of the options they’re putting forward that would cause seismic changes to public education to Indianapolis,” Hannah Marley with the Indianapolis Education Alliance added.

The plan is intended for the Indianapolis Local Education Alliance (ILEA).

The city-led body is tasked with developing recommendations on school facilities, transportation, governance and efficiency.

“This is not just about today’s students. It’s about ensuring Indianapolis has a strong, stable, excellent public education system for decades to come,” Board of School Commissioners President Angelia Moore said at an IPS Community Conversation event last month.

But many parents WRTV spoke with Thursday say they’re frustrated with the ILEA, the process for feedback, and the several models presented thus far.

“I’m an IPS resident. I expect to vote for my own school board. Just as every single community in the state does,” MaryAnn Schlegel Ruegger said.

“Parents feel frustrated with the engagement opportunities, or lack thereof, with the ILEA. What I’m hearing and what I’m feeling is that we are permitted to listen to what they’re sharing with us, and then we get 60 seconds to rush through how we’re feeling about this,” Kristen Phair with the IPS Parent Council added.
