INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—This year’s Fourth of July holiday was marked by multiple shootings across the United States, including one in Indianapolis that left at least two dead.

Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Chief Chris Bailey told reporters early Saturday morning that the mayhem was “completely unacceptable and unnecessary” and that parents and guardians needed to better control their children.
