Episode Details

A historic Indy Pride marker at Monument Circle was vandalized—cracked and dented—by four suspects caught on camera June 16th. Installed in 2022 to honor Indiana’s first outdoor Pride event in 1990, the marker now faces a $3K replacement cost, with delivery taking 6-9 months from Ohio. Rare for such symbols, this damage—unlike accidents or weather—points to intentional destruction. The marker’s installation was funded by Indy Pride itself, making the potential need to raise funds again even more painful. Police have no clear leads yet, as camera footage didn’t capture faces, but they’re still investigating. This marker isn’t just metal—it’s a symbol of community progress, and everyone’s hoping it gets the justice and care it deserves.
