Indiana State Police arrest 19-year-olds in road rage shooting case INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Indiana State Police has arrested two 19-year-olds after a road rage shooting on I-465. Both remained held on Friday in the Marion County jail without bond. Detectives charged Lester Yair Ramos Pos adas with intimidation, pointing a firearm, and criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon. Police arrested Hector Galves Flores and booked him into the Marion County Jail. State police said Flores was driving without a license. The shooting happened around 1 p.m. Saturday. Dispatchers got a 911 call from a woman who said a man in another vehicle shot at her on I-465. Investigators identified the suspect vehicle — a gray Ford Escape with a false temporary plate — using Flock traffic cameras and other tools, state police said. Officers detained the driver, Flores, and took him to the Indiana State Police Post. Detectives believe Posadas fired the shots. On April 28, a state police special weapons and tactics team arrested Posadas at an apartment on East 40th Street. State police said both suspects separately confessed to the crimes. Community activist Lamont Dean, who lives near the arrest location, said the incident reflects a broader issue. “Me growing up in the city of Indianapolis and the near east side in that area, I’m so disappointed in what’s going on with our youth,” Dean said. “But, I don’t wanna just focus on the problem. My heart and desire is to focus on solutions to that problem.” State police say the arrests send a clear message to aggressive drivers. No injuries were reported in the shooting.
