INDIANAPOLIS — An IMPD officer is facing consequences due to Sean Reed’s Facebook Live video.
Last Wednesday, May 6, Sean Reed was driving recklessly on I-65. This resulted in a police chase, which Reed documented on Facebook Live.
IMPD says Reed got out of his car at 62nd Street and Michigan Road and exchanged gunfire with an officer. Reed was eventually taken down. All of this was caught on Reed’s Facebook Live, including an officer saying “looks like it’s gonna be a closed casket, homie”.
IMPD is not releasing that officer’s identity, but has stated that officer has been suspended and reassigned. IMPD has also confirmed that officer is African American.
