Nine more drivers made the choice to get behind the wheel impaired during Memorial Day weekend, putting everyone around them at risk during one of the busiest travel weekends of the year.

Big credit to officers across Hendricks County for staying proactive, keeping the roads safer, and getting dangerous drivers off the streets. 👏

I now have more info on what led to the large police response and ERT activity today on Edgewood Drive in Danville.

I first broke news of this developing situation on my scanner page this afternoon after reporting that Avon Police had been requested to assist Hendricks County Sheriff's deputies and Danville Police on a barricaded suspect situation. A BearCat armored vehicle was deployed and fire crews staged nearby as the response continued to grow.

Information released later indicates Hendricks County Sheriff's deputies were originally responding to a domestic disturbance on Edgewood Drive. Investigators say deputies encountered a man outside the residence who reportedly went in and out of the home multiple times before eventually coming back outside carrying a rifle.

The incident later ended with officers opening fire. The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators later found a woman on the property who was also pronounced dead.

The investigation remains active and additional information is expected to be released.
