Maddox O Connor was born with a rare form of muscular dystrophy called Mitochondrial disease, but he doesn’t want that to define him and wants to be known for his acts of kindness instead.
The 10-year-old from Fisher Indiana has already started a nonprofit,
Maddox s Mission, to support his goal. Through it, he recently donated 200 “blessing bags” to the Fishers Police Department. The bags contain snacks, water, and basic necessities like a toothbrush and tissues and they’ll be given to local homeless people.
Maddox said I was tired of being known as the kid with Muscular Dystrophy, so I became the kid known for blessing bags .

Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said he believes frequent gun violence in Indianapolis is not a problem limited to the capital city’s borders.
That’s why two years ago the Fishers Police Department partnered with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department to process confiscated guns through the Indianapolis Crime Gun Intelligence Center.
By entering ballistics and forensic information from the guns involved in crimes into the database, police are able to track whether that gun is linked to any other crimes in the region.
Since March 2019, out of the 183 crime guns collected in Fishers, 101 have been traced to violent crimes in Indianapolis. The gun that was used to kill Fishers police dog Harlej in 2019 was connected to eight shootings and two homicides.
