Meth Lab Fire on North Weinbach leads to Two Arrests

0

News Release

Type of Crime: Manufacturing Meth
Date of Crime: 080212 7:30pm
Location of Crime: 1416 N. Weinbach

SUMMARY

Two men were arrested for manufacturing methamphetamine after the Evansville Fire Department was called to the scene of an apartment fire.
When the firefighters arrived at 1416 N. Weinbach, they could see the upstairs apartment was on fire. When they tried to enter the apartment to combat the blaze, the occupants told them they did not have their consent to enter the apartment. Due to the immediate threat to public safety, the firefighters forced their way in. They found two fires burning in the apartment and extinguished both. The firefighters saw multiple items used in the manufacture of meth in the apartment and asked for the Evansville Police Department to respond.

Investigators from the Vanderburgh County Joint Task Force Meth Suppression Unit were also called to the scene. After obtaining a search warrant for the apartment, the investigators found the remnants of several “one pot” meth labs. They also found several items consistent with the manufacturing of meth.

Investigators determined the fires were the result of the suspects combining precursors to create an ammonia gas. The items generated enough heat to catch the container they were in on fire. The second fire was started when the suspects threw the first container into a closet in an attempt to extinguish it. That caught items in the closet on fire.
Both residents were arrested and charged with Conspiracy to Manufacture Meth and Possession of Precursors.

Arrested were:

IS IT TRUE August 3, 2012

The Mole #??

IS IT TRUE August 3, 2012

IS IT TRUE that yesterday was a day for the record books in Evansville, IN when it comes to weather?…that the 99 degree temperature was the hottest August 2nd ever by one degree before the storm from came through and dumped enough rain on us to set a precipitation record for the day too?…for native Midwesterners yesterday was the hottest and wettest day in Evansville ever?…this summer has been a doozy?

IS IT TRUE Alan Brill’s legal attempt to stop the auction of the contents of Roberts Stadium did not persuade a judge to disable the hammer?…that the auction will be proceeding as scheduled tomorrow morning?…the judge did seem to leave a small crack of hope for Mr. Brill when it comes to the demolition that is expected to begin sometime in September?…that Brill is representing himself in this action which is admirable from a thrift point of view but that if he really wants to have a chance against a team of attorneys he needs a hired gun himself?

IS IT TRUE Team USA is having many proud moments representing our country at the London Olympics?…from Michael Phelps proving once and for all that hitting the bong won’t keep you from winning gold medals to that radiant young lady Gabby “Flying Squirrel” Douglas who came into her own to become an Olympic gold medalist in gymnastics at 16, our team is doing a great job?…the unexpected wins like Gabby’s are the ones that make you feel the most proud?

IS IT TRUE the request by CORE that is legally asking that the referendum on consolidated government be removed from the ballot is bringing out the worst of the supporters on both sides?…that name calling has started and that the people of Vanderburgh County who are most passionate about this issue are practicing the Tonya Harding politics that was a daily occurrence during July in the presidential race?…that for those of you who have forgotten Tonya Harding was the figure skater who had an opponent clubbed in the leg so assure herself of being the most talented skater at the Olympic trials?…that politics and the NFL seems to be the places in this world where Tonya Harding tactics of doing damage to the other side by breaking the rules is just how things are done?…if one has less talent and a poor record clubbing the other side with insults and lies is how things get done in politics?…the names of fools, liars, imbeciles, desperate, and some unprintable things are being tossed at the folks that are legitimately using the legal system to adjudicate their questions?…the best course of action for both sides is to let the court decide these four points which with the exception of the count are for legal minds to decide on?…that as for the count, let them challenge whatever signatures they think are not valid and let an unbiased party verify the count?…that one either makes it or it doesn’t based on numbers?

IS IT TRUE many people are wondering what is going on with the McCurdy Hotel project?…the Vanderburgh County Assessor’s website still reports that the property is owned by City Centre Properties LLC of Carmel, IN and that there is still an outstanding tax bill of $21,525,84 including penalties attached to the property?…the assessed value of this property is only $821,600 and if it were not for the 2% cap on property taxes this one would be looking at a tax bill of $24,224 instead of the $16,743 that it currently is?…if the McCurdy is reassessed someday in the future based on the estimated $13 Million refurbishment cost then the taxes will go up to $260,000 per year?…such levels of taxation reduce the value of the building and are a big deterrent to outside investors?…the CCO hopes that whatever is holding this project up gets out of the way so it can proceed before this building degrades even further?

Evansville-Vanderburgh Airport Authority District announces temporary closing of section of Oak Hill Road and detour options

0

Closing is part of construction to accommodate federally-mandated runway project at Evansville Regional Airport

The Evansville-Vanderburgh Airport Authority District announced that a section of Oak Hill Road west of SR 57 up into the McCutchanville area will close on or after August 7, 2012 for approximately 30 days.

Either Petersburg Rd or Kansas Rd can be used as detours around this area.

The construction is related to a federally-mandated runway project that will shift Runway 4-22, the main runway at EVV, toward the northeast and away from the U.S. 41 and St. George Rd. intersection.

The S.R. 57 construction project has a reduced speed limit and may be targeted by the Indiana State Police for increased enforcement activities in an effort to reduce speeding in the work zone. INDOT encourages motorists to slow down and pay special attention while traveling in work zones throughout Indiana.

Unification Opposition Disenfranchising Voters: Commissioner Joe Kiefer Champions Unification

Joe Kiefer

Unification Opposition Disenfranchising Voters

Community leaders reacted strongly today at efforts to prevent Vandeburgh residents from voting on a Plan of Reorganization this fall. The plan would merge city and county councils, as well as the executive branches. However, taxes, zoning, and law enforcement would remain separate according to current city and county boundaries.

Opponents of the plan filed a complaint filed with the Vanderburgh County Election Board, contending that certain signatures needed to get the referendum on the ballot were invalid. Although the signatures were certified by the County Clerk in late 2009, today’s challenge was filed just months before the election in an apparent act of desperation.

“The opponents of unification do not understand the plan and its obvious benefits to our community,” said County Commissioner Joe Kiefer. He added, “It’s an effort to disenfranchise voters by not allowing citizens of Vanderburgh County a say in this important issue. Additionally, this challenge is an unnecessary expense for tax payers. Let the voters decide this issue on November 6th.”

To trigger the referendum process, state law required the signatures of at least 5 percent of county voters who cast ballots in the 2006 Secretary of State race. Official election results put that number at 2,632.

Roberta Heiman and the organization she now leads, the League of Women Voters, helped gather many of the signatures. “I’m confident that County Clerk Susie Kirk did a thorough job and that we collected the required number of signatures. In fact, we collected many more than were required by the state law.”

Over 3,300 signatures were collected across the community, and after a thorough review, 2,757 were ultimately certified by the Clerk’s Office. Supporters of the Plan of Reorganization have focused their campaign on educating residents on the tremendous opportunities that passage will bring. Said Kiefer, “We’ll continue to work hard communicating with every voter and making sure they have all the facts about how this important initiative will build a better future for each of us.”
