Yesterday at 7:00 My Department was getting ready for a fundraiser, We all were in Class B uniforms. We were all on our way to Baskin Robbins for a fundraiser, As we all get Toned out for a MVA, involving a Tow Truck and a motorcyclist. So now were racing of the trucks running into the bays for our gear, We all get back in the truck and respond to the location.

I went to Baskin Robins too and the Merriville FD was giving rides. I got to do the sirens on the pumper! It was pretty cool and my friends were riding in the hosebed with my little brother.

This past week and this week have been a insane.

There was a one murder down on the south side. Not to many details yet but I believe 2 guys shot a man dead in his home. Not something you hear of to often here.

Another house was shot up, the bullets barley missing one of two victims inside.

There was a van belonging to a DJ Company stolen from a gas station. An officer spotted the fan but pursued it with no lights or no siren, but sounds as though the driver spooked and ran. The driver of the stolen van eventually hit a car head on and killed the driver(I believe) of the car. The driver was in his early 20s.

There was a breaking and entering hear at my apt complex where a guy who was not on the lease, kicked the door in.

Last but not least Friday morning around midnight, a man jumped in the river. The river has an extremely strong current here, and even more so in that particular area. A civilian was able to jump in and rescue him. Police show up to check the guys welfare, he jumps back in the river and appeared as if he was pushing himself under water. Evansville Fire was called for Dive Rescue as well as mutual aid called in from a county department. Crews searched the river for about 2-3 hours before being forced to give up. The rivers so dirty and nasty and muddy that the divers were literally feeling there way along rather then actually looking. Of course side sonar equipment was in use as well, but crews were forced to give up until day light. Crews continued to search later Friday and on Saturday as well for the guy. Sunday, Casino security called Evansville fire as two bodies had washed a shore. Not surprisingly, one was the man who jumped in friday night. The other, was a good friend of mine from high school. No one knows quite how he ended up at the river at this point.

^wow, and on a side note, thats pretty high quality trait in my book, that you were paying enough attention to start on the way to the scene before you were toned out. You werent sitting around with your head up your ass waiting on dispatch to tone you out. Much respect for that.
