Indiana State Police Announces Area Career Camp Location and Date

0

Like the Indiana State Police Academy, career camps give high school-age students an in-depth and hands-on law enforcement experience. This means that any child going into high school or who has graduated but not yet attended college is eligible to attend camps. These camps are co-ed camps that are directed by Troopers throughout the entire week. Our staff is comprised of male and female law enforcement personnel, utilizing many of the same experts that train our very own Troopers, as well as professionals from other walks of life that relate to the law enforcement field. Attending the camps, each camper will find out what it takes to be a police officer, experience some of the same things that officers do during their career, and get to see the other careers and specialties within the law enforcement field. Campers will participate in physical training, familiarization with police equipment, conduct their own crime scene investigations, hear from defense attorneys, judges, and other experts in the criminal justice field, and watch exciting police demonstrations! All career camps are held at universities to give participants an idea of college life while at the camp. All career camps start on Sunday and end that Friday. There is a graduation ceremony at the close of the camp that Friday afternoon that parents/family are invited to attend!

CenterPoint Energy assesses damage and works to restore power after severe weather impacts southwestern Indiana

0
Evansville, Ind. – April 2, 2024 – CenterPoint Energy is currently assessing widespread damage to its electric system in southwestern Indiana following a severe weather event this morning, resulting in outages peaking at approximately 24,000 customers.

 

Assessments of damage to CenterPoint Energy’s electric system are ongoing. Throughout the day, more than 100 CenterPoint Energy and contract crews, including damage assessment and repair teams, will work to make repairs to the system and restore power to impacted customers. As of 12:30 p.m., there are approximately 16,400 electric customers without power.

 

Continued severe weather, including high wind gusts, forecasted into early this afternoon may interfere with ongoing restoration work and could cause the outage count to fluctuate.

 

CenterPoint Energy reminds customers to remain safe and:

  • Stay at least 35 feet away from downed power lines and report them to CenterPoint Energy at 800-227-1376. Be especially mindful of downed lines that could be hidden and treat all downed lines as if they are energized.
  • Flood waters can be hazardous. Always use extreme care when stepping into flooded areas.
  • Be cautious around work crews and give them plenty of room to safely assess damages and make repairs.
  • If your power is out, don’t open freezers and refrigerators any more than absolutely necessary. Opening these appliances will allow food to thaw more quickly.
  • Only use a portable generator in a well-ventilated area and never run it inside or in a garage to avoid CO fumes, which can be deadly.
  • Never connect a portable electric generator directly to your building’s electrical system during a power outage; electricity could backfeed into the power lines, potentially endangering CenterPoint Energy workers.
  • If you smell natural gas, get to a safe area and call both 911 and CenterPoint Energy at 800-227-1376.

For the latest information on power outages:

  • Report outages by texting the word “OUT” to 83212.
