 Flagpole dedication, Trading Copper for Red, White and Blue

1

EFD

Evansville Firefighters do many things beside fighting fires and responding to other emergency runs. Discussing how they could give back to the community, Captain Ron Goedde (getty) and his crew at Station #8 decided to adopt Tracie Stafford’s 2nd grade class at Evans School. They visit them from time to time, take pencils and stickers, attend special events and even prepared and delivered a Christmas lunch to the entire class.

Now it was the students turn to give back. They decided Station #8 needed to fly a US Flag, but first they needed a flagpole so Ms. Stafford’s class started collecting pennies to fund their new project. Well, they have successfully achieved their goal and Wednesday May 14th at 10:30 AM, the Evans 2nd grade class will present Station #8 with a new flagpole and flag.

Mayor Winnecke, Fire Chief Connelly, Sheriff Williams, Leadership Evansville and other community leaders are scheduled to attend.

After the dedication ceremony, the crew at Station #8 will host a cookout for the 2nd graders.

Fire Station #8 is located at 2003 N. Kentucky Ave, just south of Diamond Ave.

Interviews will be available on Wednesday following the dedication.

This morning, Trooper Nick Hatfield and Trooper Hunter Manning reported to the Evansville District to begin their new careers as Indiana State Troopers. They were among 47 graduates of the 73rd Indiana State Police Academy, which graduated May 1 in Indianapolis.user29376-1399908503-media2_1a325e_240_183_PrsMe_

The 73rd State Police Academy began November 10, 2013, after 3,000 applications were submitted and 80 people were selected to attend. Of the 80 that started, 47 graduated after completing 25 weeks of training that included 600 hours of classroom instruction and nearly 300 hours of hands-on practical and scenario based training exercises.

Trooper Hatfield, 30, is a native of Oaktown and a 2001 graduate of North Knox High School. He currently has 60 college credit hours and is pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice. Hatfield spent five years in the United States Army and was deployed to Iraq on two different occasions between 2003 and 2008. After being honorably discharged from the military, Hatfield was employed as a police officer with the Sullivan Police Department from August 2008 to March 2013. After 4 ½ years, he was hired as an internal affairs police officer with the Indiana Department of Corrections at Carlisle where he worked six-months before being hired by the Indiana State Police. Hatfield and his wife, Hannah, reside in Knox County with their two children.

Trooper Hunter Manning, 22, is a native of Petersburg and a 2010 graduate of Pike Central High School. He later attended Vincennes University where he received an Associate’s Degree in Conservation Law. Manning was employed as a correctional officer with the Pike County Sheriff’s Department before being hired by the Indiana State Police. Manning and his fiancée, Lindsey McLain, reside in Pike County.

Both troopers start their 14 weeks of field training with experienced troopers today. The program allows them to put the skills and knowledge they gained in the academy to work in the field. Upon successful completion of the field training program, they will receive their own patrol car and begin solo patrol responsibilities.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR FROM COUNTY PROSECUTOR NICK HERMANN

1

Nick's Headshot
Letter TO The CCO Editor

Beginning in June of 2013, my office launched WeTip, a completely anonymous crime reporting hotline, to aid law enforcement and to empower citizens to take an active role protecting our community. As with any large scale initiative, we knew that our initial challenge was to effectively promote and advertise the program to the community. We asked for your help in making WeTip a success, and we could not have been more impressed.

In less than a year, with your help, we have made WeTip a household name. We have received tips that have aided in the investigation of murders, drug dealers, vandals, and many others who threaten to do harm to those in our community. Tips have led to the arrests of fugitives, taken illegal firearms off the streets, and significantly aided law enforcement in directing their efforts to protect our community.

Our community’s efforts have not gone unnoticed. The Vanderburgh County WeTip program was recently awarded the National Safety Award based on the overwhelming support that the community has given to the program. In less than a year, this program has become one of the most successful tip lines in the country both in the number and in the quality of the tips received.

On behalf of the entire law enforcement community, thank you for all that you have done to make this program a nationally recognized success.

Sincerely,

Nicholas Hermann
Vanderburgh County Prosecutor
