Introduction to the Crime Gun Intelligence Center
Yesterday, Chief Bryan Roach was joined by Mayor Joe Hogsett as well as local and federal law enforcement partners to introduce Indianapolis’ Crime Gun Intelligence Center (CGIC) to the community.
The CGIC model focuses on the collection and real-time analysis of crime gun evidence from homicide and non-fatal shootings using forensic technologies. By helping detectives connect a single perpetrator to multiple crime scenes, Indianapolis’ CGIC is generating investigative leads that result in the arrest and prosecution of repeat violent offenders, and the removal of crime guns from the community. Year-to-date, CGIC investigations have yielded 38 arrests and removed 28 crime guns from Indianapolis neighborhoods.
Partner agencies include:
- IMPD
