Police say passerby may have saved life of LMPD officer attacked by homeless man

Gee, how original. Never heard that one before. Pure genius.

Does anyone seriously think LMPD can hire the best people with other departments offering so much more a few hours away? No ratty take home car is going to fix this.

Probationary police officers in Indianapolis earn a yearly salary of $39,446, beginning when they start the police academy. Second-year patrol officers earn $47,651 per year, with a further increase to a yearly base salary of $65,452 in the third year.

Upon reaching age 52 with 20 years of service, pension will equal 50 percent of base salary + 1 percent for each six months of service over 20 years. The max. benefit is 74 percent of base salary with 32 years or more of service.

YEA, TAKE CARS AWAY FROM OUT OF COUNTY RESIDENTS ALSO. UNFAIR THAT UNMARKED CARS ARE STILL BEING DRIVEN OUT OF COUNTY TO HOMES WHILE MARKED ONES HAVE TO STAY IN COUNTY.
