Inmate Death Investigation, Fallen Trooper Memorial, and Porn Law Blocked in Indiana

  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Wednesday, November 27, 2024.

    We start with breaking news from the past few days. The Indiana State Police are investigating an inmate death at the Wayne County Jail, and a memorial is being built to honor a fallen state trooper[1]. Additionally, a judge has blocked a new law that aimed to ban PornHub in the state, citing constitutional concerns[1].

    Moving on to the job market, there have been no major hiring announcements in the past few days, but we do note that the Colts training camp is set to kick off in July next year, which could bring in temporary job opportunities[1]. The current unemployment rate in Indiana remains steady, with no recent updates.

    In real estate news, there have been no notable commercial or residential property sales reported in the past few days. However, construction on I-465 Northbound is set to restrict traffic, so commuters should plan accordingly[1].

    From city hall, we have updates on decisions that affect daily life. Governor Holcomb has been fostering global connections and defense partnerships in the Middle East, which could have long-term economic benefits for the state[2]. Attorney General Coleman is calling for federal legislation to protect kids online, emphasizing the importance of digital safety[2].

    Weather-wise, today is expected to be mostly sunny with a high in the mid-40s. However, we're looking at a stormy start to the weekend, so make sure to check the forecast before planning your activities[1].

    In new business activity, there have been no major openings or closings reported in the past few days. However, the economic impact of the NBA All-Star Weekend is still being felt, with local businesses benefiting from the influx of visitors[1].

    Upcoming community events include the Lord's Kitchen daily lunch and breakfast at The Salvation Army, and the Rainbow Youth Meeting at Christ Episcopal Church Annex[2]. Don't forget to visit Santa at his cottage in Historic Downtown Madison[2].

    In local school achievements, the Hanover Football Panthers won the ForeverLawn Bowl, and Madison's Clint Hearne kicked a last-second score to win the game[2].

    On a lighter note, we take a look at some of Indiana's quirky laws. Did you know that it's illegal to make a monkey smoke a cigarette in South Bend, or that men are prohibited from standing in a bar[4]? These laws may not be enforced today, but they're certainly an interesting part of our state's history.

    Finally, in today's crime report, we have several incidents to note. A Lebanon mom was arrested after choking her son in a trailer park, and a homicide suspect was arrested after a second unrelated shooting[1]. The IMPD is also investigating a man shot during an attempted armed robbery[1].

    This has been Indianapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
