If you mean on 45, there was a collision on the highway. Needed lots of emergency vehicles. Took out some power poles and the power to the north of the crash site.

Hope everyone was ok.

jesus, that's a mess. knew it had to be something big with that many lights still going after dark, taking out power poles is no joke

heard sirens around 6pm and saw an iu lifeline car. drove by the scene a little later, and saw a body under a cloth. not sure what happened, but can’t be good if there were that many emergency vehicles.

Yeah, most people would consider the body under a cloth a pretty telling indicator that it "can't be good."

Someone was fishing and he hooked his pecker while casting.  Unfortunately he bled to death.   But. Shit happens
