Water balloons target undercover police

Dropping water balloons is nothing new.

But police said two men picked the wrong targets..

Police in Indianapolis said undercover officers were on the receiving end of a water balloon bombardment from the sixth floor of a parking garage.

Police noted from that height a water balloon hits like a one-pound object.

No officers were hurt.
