An Indiana State Police Wolfpack Patrol is a proactive patrol where troopers work in a concentrated area focused on community safety through traffic enforcement and criminal interdiction.

Investigators with the Indiana State Police, with assistance from the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Police Department, also conducted an operation focused on the solicitation of prostitutes.  This resulted in investigators identifying a victim of human trafficking, with services being offered to her.

The Indiana State Police will continue to have high visibility, focused patrols throughout the communities we work in.  The focus of these patrols will be traffic enforcement, seeking those who drive impaired, and criminal interdiction. The goal of these patrols is to use proactive enforcement as well as investigative and crime prevention efforts to make our roadways and communities safer for everyone.
