Fishburn assailant to stay in jail

The man convicted of shooting an Indianapolis police officer will stay behind bars after the Indiana Court of Appeals denied Brian Reese’s attempt to appeal.  Reese was sentenced to 59 years in prison for shooting officer Jason Fishburn in 2008.

Teen arrested in Lawrence robbery

Police in Lawrence and Indianapolis caught a 19-year-old suspected of robbing and abducting a motorist Tuesday night. David Miller told police he had stopped his van at Harrison Point Apartments in Lawrence when he was approached by an armed man who ordered him out of the vehicle and demanded his cash. Then a second suspect showed up and ordered Miller back into the van, which they drove to a nearby bank. They then forced the victim to withdraw another $100 before setting him free and fleeing in his vehicle. Investigators tracked down the van in Indianapolis using the GPS feature on the victim’s stolen cell phone. After a short chase, police used a Taser to subdue and arrest Antonio Love, 19. They are still looking for the second suspect, who was not identified.
