Indianapolis, Indiana – A 30-year-old man was arrested in connection with a series of armed business robberies, prompting multiple felony charges and an ongoing investigation.
According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD), Larry Thirkill was taken into custody March 18 with assistance from the FBI Violent Crimes Task Force, Southeast VCTF, and IMPD SWAT. Authorities allege Thirkill was involved in several robberies that began in late February and continued into March.
Investigators said the case developed after detectives identified a pattern across multiple business robberies, including at least one incident reported last week. Through investigative techniques, federal and local agencies identified Thirkill as a suspect and worked to locate him.
Police said Thirkill was arrested without incident and now faces preliminary charges including armed robbery, kidnapping, possession of a deadly weapon, and unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon. Authorities also noted he had active warrants, including escape and robbery violations.
IMPD officials emphasized the coordinated effort behind the arrest. Deputy Chief Kendale Adams said the case reflects ongoing collaboration between local and federal agencies aimed at addressing violent crime.
According to police, the investigation remains active, and the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office will determine final charges. Thirkill allegedly remains presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
The case may be relevant to local workers and late-night business employees affected by recent robbery incidents.
