The Fishers Police Department expressed thanks to local residents willing to report suspicious activity in their neighborhoods quickly, because that led to three arrests connected to two burglary investigations.

The first occurred at The Hamilton Apartments (Hamilton Pass and Hoosier Road). A resident notified police after observing a suspicious car driving thru the apartment complex. While officers were searching the area, they observed a suspect inside a screened-in porch. The suspect refused commands from the officers and ran. Police chased the suspect and took him into custody. The suspect was later identified as Dwayne Chaney, 54, from Indianapolis.

The second incident occurred in the 9700 Block of April Rose Drive (96th Street and Cyntheanne Road). Like the prior incident, a resident immediately called 911 to report a suspicious person at their front door. As officers arrived, they observed the two suspects fleeing the area in a Honda passenger car. Officers pursued the suspects for a short distance before the Honda became disabled. The suspects were later identified as Gregory Gardner, 30, from North Vernon and Emily Parrish, 23, also from North Vernon.

The three suspects were taken into custody and transported to the Hamilton County Jail.  All three face several charges.
