EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) – Transportation officials say the Indiana approach bridges for the I-69 Ohio River Crossing project are nearly complete, with only finishing touches left.

Since 2024, crews have been building the approach bridges on the Indiana side of the river for the ORX bridge.

Officials say the bridges are roughly 95% complete and will be mostly finished by the end of September. Officials say construction will be substantially complete by the end of the month.

I-69 ORX spokesperson Mindy Peterson said, “When you have this interstate connectivity come to a region, the difference it can make, the opportunities it can bring, and the doors that it can open. This is a project that is very significant, not only Evansville and Henderson, but truly for the entire region and beyond.”

Even though the bridges will not be open to traffic for a while, officials say they will be put to use. The bridges will provide all-weather access to the main bridge’s construction site.

Officials say construction on the main bridge over the Ohio River is expected to begin in the spring and be completed by 2031.

Video that shows what led up to the fatal shooting of a security guard in Gary, Indiana, has still not been released after more than a week.

Kenneth Williams Sr., 67, was working when he was shot and killed by officers in downtown Gary. Indiana State Police said he was acting “unusual” and “erratic” before nine officers fired shots and killed him. The shooting left his family confused — his son saying that’s not who his father was.

For the last week, Williams’ family has been preparing for his funeral next Saturday. Kenneth Williams Jr. is still without a clue as to why his dad was shot and killed.

“Waiting for answers, waiting for body camera video,” he said.

The family says Williams Sr. has been an armed security guard for decades with different companies.

On Friday, Aug. 28, ISP said officers were called to 4th and Broadway by the Metro Center because Williams Sr. was acting strange. They say nine officers from the Gary Police Department and Lake County Sheriff’s Department exchanged fire with Williams, who was shot and killed.

“I’ve never heard of him having to fire a weapon. It seems strange to me,” Williams Jr. said.

At least 100 evidence markers were seen around the park outside the Metro Center. 

Williams Jr. says he’s been in touch with an ISP investigator who told him it could take two weeks or a little longer for the amount of footage he has to look through. He also learned that surveillance cameras at the Gary Metro station were not working or unavailable and there was a prior incident at the Metro station involving three people. One had a gun, but it’s unclear how his dad got involved.

“So I am just waiting to see if that had anything to do with the police force on my father,” he said.

Williams Jr. and his brother Jonathan spoke with CBS Chicago the weekend their father was fatally shot. They said he was acting normal before going to work and never had to “call medical assistance, psychiatric for him.”

As for Williams Jr., he has faith he will see the body camera video soon, so his family can have some sort of closure.

“I believe everyone wants to see what was going on and want to see if the actions of these officers, you know, the force they used, was needed,” he said.

CBS News Chicago has reached out and submitted requests for the video footage and is still waiting to receive it.

The officers involved are on administrative leave.
