* (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) * Indianapolis, Indiana — On May 15, 2024, just after 2:00 p.m., Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) received a 911 call regarding a man waving a gun and threatening to shoot people near a housing complex in the 600 block of East 38th Street. Security camera video captured the man, later identified as 35-year-old Lemar Qualls walking around the perimeter of the housing complex. Responding IMPD officers received an update from dispatch regarding an additional 911 caller in the 3900 block of Broadway Street. The caller said a man matching Qualls’ description was on her front porch waving a gun and making threats. Officers buck and flick arrived at the 911 caller’s home to find Qualls on the porch. Officer flick was the first to approach and can be heard telling Qualls to put his “Hands Up“. When officer Flick stepped onto the porch, Qualls was sitting in a chair and holding a gun in his right hand. Qualls raised the gun and pointed it at officer Flick. Officer Flick discharged his service weapon followed by officer Buck. The Firearm slid across the patio floor. Officers waited for additional assistance before approaching Qualls. As officer #3 approached the home, Qualls’ firearm was visible on the patio stairs. The preliminary investigation indicates damage to the magazine was caused by a round from one of the officers. The impact caused Qualls to lose possession of the firearm which then landed on the stairs. Officers secured Qualls and began medical aid until the arrival of Indianapolis Emergency Medical Services. Qualls was transported to Methodist Hospital where he later died. No officers or uninvolved citizens were injured in this incident. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - ’DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse’ - ’walleye truth2power’ - Spencer Scott - RayJayOB - Sean Sheldon - Marvin Tobar - Lee Roberts - ’Mr. Unknown’ - ’’ - Josef Rex - ’Skydog’ - Jesse - Ádám Lampért - Sabrina Bewey - Kelly Goodwin - ’wuzy’ - ’Jun’ - ’Xenik’ - ’Rom’ - kyle McBurnett - ’Fishy Tuna’ - ’GotsNoGroove Cheryl’ - ’CombatKid’ - Exus Altimus - ’Dawesenm’ - Paul Rohrbaugh - ’Krazy KZ’ - Koby Bland - Christopher Payne - Zach Williams - Michael R Sheffield - Rich Biggs - ’JTrip’ - Brant Eaton - ’wvot’ - James Pringle - ’’ - ’Sopaul’ - Lisa Overly - Connor Davies - ’Necko’ - Gerardo Flores - Anthony Eufemio - ’Donkbot’ - Gage Kissinger - ’coco Coco’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Support us on Patreon: Follow us on X: 🛍️ Check out our Amazon store: 🛍️ Disclosure: Please note that we will receive a small commission from purchases made through our Amazon store.
