INDIANAPOLIS — A woman working at the Marion County Juvenile Detention Center was wounded in an apparent shooting Tuesday.

Officers were called to the complex in the 2400 block of North Keystone Avenue on a report of shots fired just after 5 p.m. The officers encountered the female employee who had a minor injury that police say was consistent with a gunshot wound.
