There could soon be a casino in Terre Haute. Republican Senator Jon Ford is proposing a bill to move unused games held by “The Rising Sun Casino†in southeastern Indiana to the city of Terre Haute.
He says that could create more than 1,200 jobs, and benefit the state and local government by generating millions in tax revenue. Terre Haute could potentially get more than $7.3 million in annual wagering taxes. Vigo County could receive more than $2.7 million in tax revenue. The new casino could even generate close to one-million dollars for Indiana counties that do not have a casino.
If approved, this could become a reality by 2019.

Evansville police are looking into a report of shots being fired near Haynie’s Corner. The incident happened around 3 p.m. in the 1000 block of Parrett. Police were sent there after someone called 911 saying they saw two men on the street arguing. That’s when witnesses say one man pulled out a gun and fired at the other, then both men took off.
Police closed down a portion of the street to investigate the incident, but so far no word on whether they found anything significant.
