Via my WISH TV 8 alerts:
Fishers police have closed down I-69 in both directions at 116th Street.
According to Fishers police, a complaint about the driver of the vehicle led to police stopping the vehicle in question. The person in the vehicle is thought to be emotionally unstable and was refusing to exit the vehicle. 24 Hour News 8 Jim Shella reported that after a brief standoff, police shot out one of the windows on the truck and then were able to remove the suspect from the vehicle.
I-69 is still closed between I-465 and State Route 238. Visit WISHTV.com for the latest updates and traffic information on this breaking story.
People are losing their minds, but knowing how people drive on that stretch I’m actually surprised that this hasn’t happened sooner. I vote they rename I-69 The Interstate of Death and Insanity.

Tonight is turning into another one of those mind and heart check nights. One of those nights where I can’t keep my mind from wondering into “big picture” land. As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I’m now officially in my thirties, so I just can’t seem to help myself from going there.
Anyway, what tripped it tonight was two things. Andrew Peterson & the violent death of a former high school classmate.
Every time I see or listen to AP I quickly regain my focus on what really matters in the grand scheme of things. God, family, friends and then everything else (including my businesses and anything else that I might have my hands in at any given moment). That’s a good thing except for the fact that I’m always eagerly (and impatiently) looking forward to the next chapter and potentially miss out on some memorable moments of the current one.
Then the violent death of someone I once knew just compounds that by making me see my own mortality through the example of their life. Even though this wasn’t someone I knew real well, it was someone that I had spent hours working side-by-side with while we were interns one summer (not to mention being classmates for four years). While I don’t know all of the details, the main detail is the one that concerns me the most. Death.
I don’t care who you are or what your relationship is to the person, if you have any sense at all that is going to get the wheels turning upstairs and you’ll begin to ponder “what if today is my last?” and all of the questions that follow that. And frankly, I don’t want to have to answer that one right now…I’ve got a good forty plus years ahead of me, right? As proven by this latest tragic event, that answer is clear. No, not necessarily.
Anyway, I’ve not formulated many organized thoughts beyond that just yet. But rest assured, God has my attention and I intend to savor every bit of this life he has blessed me with.
