INDIANAPOLIS — Two teens were arrested on Tuesday after police officers tried to recover a stolen car and found six guns with a backpack full of ammunition inside.
Around 10:30 a.m., ISP troopers attempted to pull over a black Hyundai Sonata that was reportedly stolen in the area of 43rd St. and Shadeland Ave.
