Indianapolis Councilman Targeted in Shooting After Supporting Data Center Rezoning
Ron Gibson, a councilman in Indianapolis, experienced a shooting at his home early Monday morning. The incident occurred shortly after the Indianapolis Metropolitan Development Commission approved rezoning for a data center construction in his district. Gibson, who supports the project, found a note at his doorstep reading 'No Data Centers' after 13 rounds were fired at his front door. The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department confirmed the shooting as an isolated, targeted incident, with no injuries reported. The data center, developed by Metrobloks, is expected to bring significant investment and job creation to the area, although it has faced opposition due to concerns over resource costs and noise pollution.
