A driver who crashed into a townhouse near 16th Street and College Avenue early Thursday had been shot in the thigh prior to the accident, Indianapolis police say.

Indiana University Health has canceled plans for a $73 million administrative office building at 16th Street and Capitol Avenue to instead purchase the Gateway Plaza tower at 10th and Illinois streets. The Indianapolis-based hospital system is still moving forward with construction of a $120 million neurosciences hub across the street from its Methodist Hospital campus. But IU Health officials, without being specific, said the price was too good on Gateway Plaza—where the hospital system already rents 130,000 square feet and employs 750 workers. The building currently has 80 percent of its 270,000 rentable square feet leased. But the looming departures of IU Health as well as the IU Foundation—which recently bought its own building along the Central Canal—could have quickly reduced occupancy to 20 percent. IU Health also bought the 1,200-space parking lots adjacent to the building.
Six Indiana hospitals were named to Thomson Reuters' annual list of the nation’s top 100 health care facilities. They included St. Vincent Indianapolis Hospital, the flagship hospital of Indianapolis-based St. Vincent Health. Also making the list were Columbus Regional Hospital, Community Hospital in Munster, Kosciusko Community Hospital in Warsaw, Memorial Hospital & Health System in South Bend, and Reid Hospital & Health Care Services in Richmond. The Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals study evaluates performance in 10 areas: deaths; medical complications; patient safety; average patient stay; expenses; profitability; patient satisfaction; adherence to clinical standards of care; post-discharge deaths; and re-admission rates for patients suffering a heart attack, heart failure and pneumonia. The study has been conducted annually since 1993.

An Indianapolis man faces several charges after leading police on a high-speed chase through the near-northeast side. An officer tried to pull over a speeding Jaguar near 16th Street and Sherman Drive at about 12:30 a.m. Friday, but the driver sped off. During the chase, the driver threw a gun out of the window, but kept driving, reaching 80 mph. Eventually, the car blew a tire, sending it crashing into a parked minivan. The driver tried to escape on foot, but was captured. The suspect was taken to Wishard hospital with injuries.
Police say icy roads are causing accidents in parts of Indiana following a night of freezing drizzle. Traffic was moving slowly along Interstate 70’s eastbound lanes about 30 miles east of Indianapolis at 10 a.m. Wednesday after being closed earlier because of crashes. State police said traffic was moving slowly along Interstate 69 north of Indianapolis in Hamilton and Madison counties following several crashes and slide-offs. Portions of the highway had been closed for a time overnight due to the slick conditions. I-69 at the 10 mile-marker in Fishers was shut down until crews could clean up an accident, while more crews were assisting drivers sliding off the 116th Street exit ramp into a ditch.
Indianapolis police on Tuesday arrested a suspect in a hit-and-run crash that critically injured an Indianapolis mother on New Year’s Day. Detectives said tips from the public led them to arrest 49-year-old Edward Karwatka of Indianapolis. The crash occurred in the 4600 block of East 16th Street and sent 33-year-old Tabetha Lynn, a mother of four, to an area hospital, where she remains in critical condition. Police say Karwatka has a long history of drunk-driving convictions and admitted to the latest incident.
Police were able to track down and capture a suspected robber after icy road conditions hampered his getaway. The robbery occurred about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday at the Sakitumi Discount liquor store near 30th Street and Lafayette Road in Indianapolis. Officers say the clerk ran out of the store and had enough time to write down the license plate number of the getaway car because it couldn't gain traction on the ice. Police tracked the suspect to a house near 16th Street and Lafayette Road. The suspect surrendered peacefully about an hour later after a SWAT team was called in.
An early-morning water main break on the city’s west side created a mess for the Monday morning commute. Water was spilling onto 16th Street near Tibbs Avenue for hours. Crews shut down one lane of traffic, but frigid temperatures caused the water to freeze, creating slick spots drivers had to navigate around. Veolia Water officials told Fox59 crews they hope to have the area open in time for the evening rush hour.
A semi-truck crashed into a utility pole near 116th Street and Allisonville Road in Fishers Monday morning, knocking out power for about 1,700 Duke Energy customers.
