  • Indianapolis Winter Storm Warning, Senate Rejects Redistricting Plan, Tragic Home Incident - Local Pulse Update

    Indianapolis Winter Storm Warning, Senate Rejects Redistricting Plan, Tragic Home Incident - Local Pulse Update
    Dec 13 2025
    Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Saturday, December thirteenth.

    We wake up today watching the sky and the streets. Local forecasters at WISH TV and 13News say a winter storm warning kicks in late this morning for Marion County and much of central Indiana, with around four to six inches of snow possible in Indy by midnight. Roads like I 65, I 70, and I 465 could get slick fast, and with subzero wind chills expected tomorrow, any snow and ice may stick around. City DPW crews tell 13News they have been on twelve hour shifts since midweek, focusing first on major routes like Meridian, Keystone, Washington Street, and the interstates before they touch neighborhood streets, so we plan extra time if we have to be out.

    We also feel the chill from the Statehouse. Indiana senators have now rejected a Republican pushed plan to redraw congressional districts. WTHR and WFYI report that more than twenty Republican senators joined Democrats to kill the bill, despite pressure from Governor Mike Braun and former President Trump. The maps we voted under last time stay in place, but Braun says there could be political consequences, so we can expect a tense primary season.

    On our streets, IMPD and neighbors are dealing with some difficult news. 13News reports an 81 year old man, John Pedigo, was killed and his wife badly hurt in their home near South Catherwood Avenue, close to Raymond and Arlington on the southeast side. Their son is under arrest, and detectives say the investigation continues. On the west side near Vermont and Lynhurst, two young men have been arrested after police say a street race led to a crash that killed another driver. Officers are still asking for any doorbell video from that area. We keep the families in our thoughts and stay alert on the roads.

    Looking at our economy, local job boards show a few hundred open positions across downtown, the tech corridor along North Meridian, and logistics hubs near the airport. Warehousing, health care, and hospitality are still hiring, with many hourly roles in the mid to upper teens per hour and some professional roles starting around fifty thousand a year. On the housing front, Realtors say Marion County’s median home price is sitting in the low three hundreds, with popular neighborhoods like Fountain Square, Irvington, and Broad Ripple still moving quickly when a house is well priced and updated.

    Around town this snowy weekend, the Circle of Lights at Monument Circle is still glowing, and organizers say events at Gainbridge Fieldhouse and the Indiana State Museum remain on, but we check for weather updates before heading out. High school basketball is in full swing; several Indianapolis Public Schools teams and township schools like Warren Central and Ben Davis notched wins this week, and local coaches are already talking about deep tournament runs.

    For a feel good note, neighbors on the near north side organized an impromptu coat and glove drive outside a church off Meridian and 30th, collecting hundreds of items in just a few hours ahead of this cold snap. It is a reminder that we take care of each other when the weather turns rough.

    We stay warm, drive carefully, and check on older neighbors as the snow moves in today and the bitter cold hits tomorrow.

  • Indiana Senate Rejects Trump-Backed Gerrymandering, Keeps Indy Districts; Immigration Enforcement Bill Advances

    Indiana Senate Rejects Trump-Backed Gerrymandering, Keeps Indy Districts; Immigration Enforcement Bill Advances
    Dec 12 2025
    Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Friday, December 12. We kick off with breaking news from our state capitol, where Indiana Republicans in the Senate just defied President Trump and voted down his push for a new congressional map. The 31 to 19 rejection keeps Indianapoliss two Democratic districts intact, avoiding a split of our city into four rural-stretching zones that would have weakened urban voices like those from IU Indianapolis. Lawmakers faced intense pressure, including pipe bomb hoaxes and swatting threats at homes near Meridian Street, but senators like Greg Goode prioritized local concerns over national demands. This means fairer maps for now, directly impacting how we vote in 2026.

    Shifting to city hall updates, an immigration enforcement bill from Senator Liz Brown advances to the full Senate, while 38 folks were turned away from a naturalization ceremony here, leaving families in limbo downtown. On development, neighbors in Morgan County sue to halt Googles 50 percent tax break for a massive data center, promising a million dollars to local schools and food banks, but construction starts February. Northwest side residents near 70th and Township Line Road push back on American Towers proposed facility after reps skipped last nights Pike Township meeting, with zoning hearings now set for mid-January.

    We stay safe out there with todays crime report. Two pedestrians recover from separate crashes yesterday morning, one on Rockville Road near South Lynhurst Drive, the other on West Washington near Klondike Street, both Vision Zero hot spots as IMPD ramps up road safety. Tragically, an Indianapolis native, 19-year-old college student, was shot dead at Kentucky State University; suspect Jacob Bard, another Indiana dad, is in custody.

    Weather shapes our day after last nights 2 to 4 inches of snow from the winter weather advisory. Roads near Monument Circle have black ice risks from freezing drizzle, so drive slow this morning with highs near 34 and flurries possible before 1 p.m. Expect a 30 percent snow chance today, dropping to bitter 22 tomorrow with 80 percent precip and wind chills near minus 20 by Sunday. Bundle up for events.

    Jobs hold steady with data center buzz signaling about 500 new tech roles soon, while real estate sees median home prices around 290 thousand, up 4 percent yearly amid winter slowdowns. Quick school note: Carmel Highs girls basketball team won 65 to 52 last night. Community events include tomorrows holiday lights walk at White River State Park and a food drive Saturday at Broad Ripple Village.

    For a feel-good lift, families rallied with cheers outside the Statehouse, chanting fair maps and thanking senators for principled stands. Thanks for tuning in, listeners, and please subscribe for daily updates. This has been Indianapolis Local Pulse. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Indy Redistricting Vote, Council Shakeup, Winter Storm Ahead, Crime Crackdown, and Community Rallies for Shelter Pets

    Indy Redistricting Vote, Council Shakeup, Winter Storm Ahead, Crime Crackdown, and Community Rallies for Shelter Pets
    Dec 11 2025
    Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Thursday, December 11, 2025.

    We wake up today watching the Statehouse, where Indiana senators are set to take a final, high stakes vote on a new congressional map that would split Indianapolis into four districts instead of one. According to the Associated Press, this mid decade redistricting push is drawing heavy pressure from former President Trump and could shift who speaks for our city in Congress, so we will be watching how that impacts our neighborhoods from Broad Ripple to Mars Hill.

    At City Hall, longtime City County Council president Vop Osili is stepping aside from the top role while staying on the council, as WTHR reports. That opens the door to new leadership on day to day issues like public safety funding, road repairs on streets like Keystone Avenue, and support for affordable housing near downtown.

    Weather wise, we start with cold rain around the I 65 and I 70 split, and 13News meteorologists say temperatures drop through the afternoon with a changeover to light snow later tonight. We should plan for slick spots on I 465, especially near the I 69 ramps on the northeast side, and bundle up for a colder stretch heading into the weekend.

    On the crime front, federal prosecutors in Indianapolis say several violent felons have just received multi year sentences in separate firearms cases, part of an ongoing push to get illegal guns off our streets. At the same time, local police are investigating a series of overnight vehicle break ins on the near north side; we keep our tone careful here and remind listeners to lock cars, turn on porch lights, and check on neighbors, especially older residents.

    In education, Chalkbeat Indiana reports the Indianapolis Local Education Alliance is weighing big changes in who controls school transportation and buildings across IPS and charter schools. That could affect bus routes for thousands of families on the east and west sides, with final recommendations expected next week.

    On the personal interest side, Mirror Indy notes that churches across the city, especially on the near west side, are preparing Our Lady of Guadalupe celebrations, showing how our immigrant communities keep culture alive even amid worries about immigration enforcement.

    The job market in the metro area stays steady, with unemployment hovering around four percent, and large employers along the I 69 corridor and in the tech district near Massachusetts Avenue still posting openings in logistics, health care, and IT. In real estate, agents say Marion County median home prices are now in the mid two hundreds, with older homes near Garfield Park still drawing multiple offers, while new apartments rise around the IU Health hospital expansion on Capitol Avenue.

    Culturally, there is plenty to do. The Circle of Lights on Monument Circle is still glowing, the Indianapolis Symphony is performing holiday pops at Hilbert Circle Theatre, and local venues on Virginia Avenue in Fountain Square are hosting regional bands through the weekend. The Children’s Museum winter festival continues, which is great if the snow flies later tonight.

    Sports wise, the Pacers are back at Gainbridge Fieldhouse tonight, fighting to stay near the top half of the Eastern Conference, and the Colts prepare for a key road game that could keep their playoff hopes alive. High school basketball is heating up too, with a big matchup tomorrow between Lawrence North and Warren Central, both coming off strong early season wins.

    For a feel good story, Hendricks County volunteers are rallying to improve conditions at their crowded animal shelter after concerns shared with WTHR. Nearby Indy rescue groups are stepping in to foster dogs and cats, a reminder that our wider metro community can come together quickly when animals and neighbors need help.
