Carmel City Leader Arrested for Domestic Battery
CARMEL, Ind.–Last year Jeremy Kashman was promoted to infrastructure officer for the City of Carmel. Now his name and picture have been removed from the city website and he’s suspended, on what the city says is unpaid administrative leave, following an arrest on domestic battery charges.
Kashman, 44, was charged after an incident May 23, where police were called to a house on Spayside Dr. South, in Noblesville.
According a probable cause affidavit shared with our newsgathering partners at WISH TV, a woman accused Kashman of cursing and yelling at her and hitting her in the back, with a closed fist.
A juvenile was also hurt. Police later determined that child was hurt trying to protect the woman.
A statement was released by Nick Weber, the city’s chief of staff:
On Friday, May 23, 2025, Mayor Sue Finkam was informed that Jeremy Kashman, chief infrastructure officer, was arrested that evening by Noblesville police officers on serious personal charges involving his family. This is deeply concerning, and our thoughts are with those affected. The City is treating this matter with the seriousness it deserves and moved immediately to place Jeremy on unpaid administrative leave pending the results of an internal inquiry. City operations are continuing without disruption.
