Overnight Motorcycle Crash on US 41 Results in Fatality

0
On Saturday, June 10, 2017 at 1:20 AM the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office and Evansville Police Department responded to a motorcycle crash on northbound US 41 at the on ramp to eastbound I-69.
The family of the motorcyclist became concerned when their relative did not return home at the expected time. Using a GPS enabled phone app, the family located the crash and called 911.

Upon arrival, a police officer observed a black 2015 Harley Davidson motorcycle wrecked in a ditch near a chain link fence. Evansville Fire Department and ambulance service personnel were already on scene and attempting life saving measures on the motorcyclist. The motorcyclist was not wearing a helmet at the time of the crash and died at the scene.

A preliminary investigation revealed the motorcycle had been traveling north on US 41 at the eastbound I-69 on ramp when for unknown reasons the motorcycle left the roadway. The motorcycle traveled down an embankment and struck a metal fence, which ejected the rider. The motorcycle then came to rest in a ditch.

The Vanderburgh County Coroner’s Office will release the name of the deceased.

VHS to Celebrate 60th Anniversary with Free Ice Cream Social

0

The Vanderburgh Humane Society is celebrating 60 years of serving the pets & people of our community with an Ice Cream Social, sponsored by Nomad Technology Group and Pet Supplies Plus! Saturday, June 24th, 2017 from 11:00-4:00, the public can enjoy free ice cream, hot dogs, kids’ activities, and behind-the-scenes shelter tours on the VHS campus.

The entire event is FREE to the public! The event will be held indoor/outdoor, rain or shine, and has public restrooms and wheelchair accessibility in most areas. Kids and leashed pets are welcome!

This summer happens to also be the VHS Low-Cost Spay & Neuter Clinic’s 10th birthday, and Cardio for Canines’ FIRST birthday! The public will not want to miss this party.

The VHS is the Tri-State’s largest animal welfare agency, serving more than 10,000 animals in three states every single year. But there are still people who don’t know about their lifesaving programs. Who have never even been to their “new” facility, built in 2004. There are many who don’t know about the services they offer, or what they do every day. This is the perfect chance to get to know the VHS! Ask questions, and learn about the past 60 years AND what the future holds.

Door prizes will be awarded. “2K Fetch” tickets are available for purchase for $10 each. Every ticket corresponds to one of 250 numbered tennis balls, one of which will be “fetched” by a shelter dog during the event. Purchase as many tickets as you’d like for your chance to win $500!

All Departments including Adoptions and the Happy Tails Resale Shop will be open!

Corporate sponsorships are still available for a limited time! Email a.coburn@vhslifesaver.org or call (812) 426-2563 x 218 for information.
