Indianapolis police and firefighters to play in annual Hoops and Heroes basketball game
Indianapolis police and firefighters will meet on the basketball court for the 8th Annual Hoops and Heroes basketball game this weekend. The Indianapolis Fire Department is looking to defend its title after winning last year’s action-packed game. According to a news release, authorities said, “This year’s event will feature a thrilling basketball game between members of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) and the Indianapolis Firefighters, providing an opportunity for friendly competition while supporting survivors of domestic violence.” IMPD is especially passionate about bringing awareness to domestic violence. Police said their own Officer Kim Carmack was murdered in 2014 by her ex-husband after enduring six years of domestic violence. This is why DV resources will be available at the game.
