'All INdiana Politics' | Sept. 22, 2024
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — On Sunday’s edition of “All INdiana Politics,” voters in Indiana’s largest congressional district will select a new member of Congress in November. Republican Rep. Larry Bucshon is retiring after 14 years representing Indiana’s 8th Congressional District, which covers the southwest portion of the state and includes Evansville, Terre Haute, and Naval Support Activity Crane.
Three names are each looking to replace Bucshon: Republican Mark Messmer, Democrat Erik Hurt, and Libertarian Richard Fitzlaff. News 8’s Garrett Bergquist sat down with Hurt and Fitzlaff.
Later in the show, News 8’s Phil Sanchez brings in two members of Indiana’s best political team, Democrat Kip Tew and Republican Ali Bartlett, to discuss the backlash over Republican Presidential Nominee Donald Trump’s Ohio comments and the town of Sheridan deciding if it wants to reorganize into a single local government.
“All INdiana Politics” airs at 9:30 a.m. Sundays on WISH-TV.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A firefighter for the Indianapolis Fire Department was sent to the hospital Wednesday after battling a fire at a vacant house.
According to a Facebook post made by IFD, the fire happened around 10:15 a.m. at a house on Bluff Rd. IFD says that there were several complications, including limited access to fire hydrants and “interior hoarder conditions” that IFD says was due to squatters.
The injured firefighter received “slight injury,” the Facebook post said.
It took over an hour and a half to get the fire under control, according to IFD, and another hour to put out all the remaining hot spots in the building.
According to IFD, the cause of the fire is currently unknown. Their Fire Investigations Unit is working on figuring out what caused the fire.
