4 children hurt in crash at Ind. day care center

INDIANAPOLIS – Police said four children suffered non-life-threatening injuries when a sport utility vehicle fleeing from officers crashed into a day care center.

Lt. Jeff Duhamell said about 18 children were inside when the SUV crashed into Stepping Stones Child Care on the city’s north side about 12:15 p.m. Thursday. He said one adult from the day care center and one person from the SUV also were taken to hospitals.

Duhamell said officers were chasing the vehicle following an armed robbery at a nearby Dollar General store when the crash happened.

The red SUV went about halfway into a brick wall of the building.
