Shots were fired at an Indiana politician’s home and the gunman left behind a creepy note after the lawmaker voted for building artificial intelligence datacenters.
Democratic Indianapolis city councilor Rob Gibson said 13 rounds were fired at his home early Monday morning – as bullet holes could be seen in his front door.
An eerie note reading ‘no datacenters’ was left under his front doormat, which lay amid shattered glass.
Harrowing photos showed his wooden door riddled with bullet holes with jagged chunks of what had once been his glass screen door.
The councilman backed the project with a six-to-two vote last week, approving the Los Angeles-based company Metrobloks to build a datacenter in Indianapolis.
Gibson fully defended his approval of the project, stating that early estimates show at least $20 million could flow into the neighborhood as a result.
‘Metrobloks has the potential to bring significant investment, create jobs, and generate long-term tax revenue that supports infrastructure, housing, and essential services,’ Gibson said in a statement.
But angry locals have been slamming the plan for months, arguing that the datacenter would bring harmful environmental effects and disrupt their neighborhood, 13WTHR reported.
