Authorities said that two victims flagged down police and said that a man had as saulted them. One of the victims, who said he worked for the City of Westfield Street Dept., told police that he and his co-worker had parked their vehicle on Grassy Branch Road near the intersection of 196th Street and Grassy Branch to trim grass.
field Police Dept. were dispatched to the area of Scofield Ridge Boulevard and Hay ward Way, where they found Weir’s truck parked on the street.
Fortunately, the gun did not fire. The victim was then pistol whipped before the suspect left the area shouting racial slurs at the two men.
A police detective eventually saw Weir walk outside of a home where the pickup truck was parked and yelled at the suspect, asking whose truck was parked behind him. Weir allegedly said, “I don’t have to answer that,” according to the probable cause statement.Authorities said that Weir “began to act very fidgety, moving his hands around” and was eventually taken into custody. Police say they found a black semi-automatic handgun stuck in Weir’s waistband.
This incident has left me shaken and angry. This behavior has no place in our society and it won’t be tolerated in this city. Neither will intolerance and racism. The safety of our employees has always been my priority as mayor and an as sault on one is an assault on our city.
Weir allegedly told police that he was car rying the gun to protect his family and that he was attacked by two individuals carrying Weed Eaters and that he had to fight them off, according to the probable cause state ment. One of the victims positively identi fied Weir as the individual who pointed a firearm and hit his co-worker, police said.
An Indianapolis man is facing a charge of attempted murder after allegedly assaulting a Westfield city employee with a handgun last Austinmonth.J.Weir, 38, was charged in Hamilton Coun ty Circuit Court Aug. 30 with Level 1 felony attempt ed murder, Level 5 felony battery with a deadly weapon, Level 6 felony bat tery resulting in moderate bodily injury and two Level 6 felony counts of pointing a firearm.
A pretrial conference in the case has been scheduled for Nov. 10 with a jury trial set at 9 a.m. Dec. 14.
According to a probable cause statement filed in the case, the victim said he noticed a black, older model pickup truck driving eastbound on 196th Street traveling at a high rate of speed and put his hand out to signal the driver to slow down. The driver of the vehicle allegedly told the victim to “get the (expletive) out of my way” and retrieved a handgun, chased one of the victims and struck him in the head with the weapon, causing him to fall to the ground, according to the probable cause statement.

While on the ground, it is alleged that Weir struck him again with the firearm and that a struggle occurred between the two men. Weir allegedly got up, pointed the handgun at the victim’s chest and pulled the trigger, according to the probable cause statement.Thevictim told police that after Weir pulled to the side of the road on 196th Street, he began arguing with one of the victims, the probable cause statement said. As the two men were arguing, Weir swung at one of them, but was blocked by a Weed Eater that one of the victims was holding.

Hamilton County group combats invasive species — The Hamilton County Invasives Part nership and Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District are offering a trade-in program. Through the program, Hamilton County property owners can show proof of remov al of an invasive species on their Hamilton County property and receive up to three, 3-gallon native trees or shrubs for free. Over 80 percent of invasive species growing in Indiana are thought to have come from the landscape trade. Many popular landscape trees and shrubs such as callery pear species and burning bush easily escape landscape cultivation and take over nearby right of ways, roadsides and natural areas.

Christopher A. Edwards, 28, and his 4-year-old son, whose identity was not provided, were found inside a Chevy Camaro that was discovered on the creek bed where Ind. 32 crosses Stony Creek. A Hamilton Coun ty sheriff’s deputy observed heavy black smoke around 12:48 a.m. Sept. 3 and found the scene of a single-car crash on Ind. 32 east of Deshane Ave., which is east of Noblesville.Authorities said a preliminary investi gation indicates the vehicle was traveling westbound on Ind. 32 and that multiple road closure signs were posted. The vehicle drove westbound past the signs and struck
a “Road Closed” sign.
The sheriff’s office said the vehicle con tinued traveling to where a bridge was removed by the Indiana Dept. of Transporta tion and became airborne, police said. The bridge is being replaced by INDOT.
The vehicle traveled at a high rate of speed as it crossed the creek and struck an abutment on the other side, author ities said. Officials said the vehicle was completely engulfed in flames and heavily damaged.Oncethe fire was extinguished by the Wayne Township Volunteer Fire Dept. and the Noblesville Fire Dept., the bodies of an adult male and an unknown child were found inside.

“If you’re real and willing to be a friend, you’ve got what it takes,” he said. “It’s such a blast. It’s a really good time.”
The program, which started with eight students, is now serving 30 individuals this school year, according to Mc Clain, who hopes to see that figure grow as time goes on.
Bocko said in his discussions with Bonesho, he attempt ed to find out what were some things that the student looked forward to or what might have been a challenge. But Bocko also stressed that it wasn’t just about him being there, saying he would also share things that he was also working on in his life.
“This kid’s pretty sharp, not exaggerating, he’s pretty sharp,” Bocko said with a smile.
Occasionally, Bocko and the young student would discuss school-related material from a book when they met every other week. However, he noted that “a lot of it is being con sistent, being authentic and having a conversation.”
Individuals who are selected as mentors after going through a comprehensive background check meet with stu dents for about 30 to 45 minutes every other week during the school year. Materials and training are provided to men tors, according to McClain.

Rob Bocko, a father of four children, is a mentor in the program and was paired with 9-year-old Cooper Bonesho, who attends Noble Crossing Elementary School, during the first year of the program. Bonesho’s mother, Brittany, is a kindergarten teacher at the elementary school.
Bocko also said as a mentor, he tried to focus their dis cussions regarding the youth’s future.

“I’m just one piece in a bigger web of connections of support, and I think that’s important in any kid’s life,” Bocko said. “I’m just happy to be a part of it and it’s been a plea sure to get to know this young fella.”
A mentoring program offered at Noblesville Schools that pairs community members with students with a focus on developing positive relationships is seeing continued growth.Theprogram, known as Compass Mentoring, was launched a year ago and is designed to help students expand their access to caring adults while enhancing their strengths, said Nicole McClain, mentor coordinator with Noblesville Schools.
“We’re looking for more mentors who are just passionate about working with our students,” McClain said. “Really, we have it student-led, what the students are interested in, and we like to individualize each match.”

One thing that both individuals have in common is chess.
Brittany Bonesho also said she’s seen a change in her son as an individual through his interactions with Bocko.
Bocko also encouraged other adults to get involved and make a positive impact in students’ lives.
McClain noted that part of her job involves working with school counselors and school social workers to identify students who could benefit from a trusted adult in their life. From that point, McClain said she works with communi ty “Throughmembers.common interests, personality traits, we make those matches and hang out and have fun,” she said.
COVER STORY
“We would talk about how our week went,” he said.
That sentiment was shared by the fourth-grader, who said he enjoyed having discussions about life in general with Bocko whenever they met.
WHERE TO LEARN MORE
“I think he has really conquered a lot of his fears and I think that has a lot to do with meeting Rob, being more confident and meeting another grown-up who is a trusted advisor in his life,” she said.
Currently, the program is offered at five elementary schools and one of the district’s two middle schools, but the hope is that it can be eventually expanded to seven elementary schools and both middle schools, McClain said.

HUMOR
Last year, I’d been hyper aware as this date approached, spending the preceding days dwelling on that final summer and the hours leading up to his passing. This time? I hadn’t given Dad a single thought in over a week, and it was only in the context of being frustrated that he’d failed once again to use his heavenly presence to secure me lottery tickets to the Masters. Am I a terrible daughter? Sibling? Merely human?Myhusband believes my forgetting is a sign that I’m healing -- that I’ve moved through the grief to a place where Dad isn’t gone, but also isn’t ever-present. I hope he’s right. I kind of feel like a cry runPeacemyself.out.
“There is no week nor day nor hour when tyranny may not enter upon this country, if the people lose their roughness and spirit of defiance.”
Mid-century country crooner Roger Miller penned an iconic song in 1964 retelling the story of the ne’er-do-well recognizing his own shortcomings while sitting in a bar instead of being home with his wife and 1-month old child: “Dang me, dang me. They ought to take a rope and hang me.” Capital punishment may have been too great for the transgression, but it was clear that he saw the error in his ways. Still, he didn’t rush home. And then he found a way to put some of the blame upon his upbringing: “My Pappy was a pistol, I’m a son of a gun,” he sang. Although the errant subject of the tune did not learn his lesson, the record did earn a Grammy Award for best Country & West ern song. It seemed that the repentant, but not too much, tone resonated with audiences.Bytoday’s standards, the lyrics are quite tame. Notably absent are the ag gressive use of profanity and assertive, if not hardcore, references to victims. Somewhere along the line, our posture has changed. It is unlikely that Miller was unfamiliar with the vocabulary that would ultimately become commonplace in popular music. Still, he elected to use the more colloquial and less intended to offend.Much of the humanities has shifted into the profane in the last few decades. The internet is filled with vile and un productive uses of modern language. So-called news and creative writing aggregators push out article after ar ticle expressing a number of opinions wrapped in strong language. Mostly, we ignore them. Today’s retinue included “&$^#-less in Seattle” and “@#%^ Writ ing.” Studies show that expletive use can reduce stress for individuals. But for mass consumption, does it reduce anything other than IQ?
Might make a cry run

Recently, I received a text from my youngest sister saying she’d just ex perienced a cry run, where one bursts into tears while jogging. I asked why, and she replied that she’d been think ing about our father who passed away in 2020. Then my twin chimed in. She, too, had been remembering Dad and had spent the morning a little weepy. Sisters 2 and 3 followed with similar remarks, and I was left wondering what was going on. Why was everyone sad? When a photo came through from the cemetery, it finally dawned on me: It was the two-year anniversary of Dad’s death, and I’d forgotten. Like, completely and totally forgotten. If I hadn’t been singing John Denver in a hallway full of teens at the exact moment of this discovery, I would have fallen apart. But Friday karaoke must go on, so I stifled my emotions and continued mangling, “Take Me Home, Country Roads.” Take me home, indeed.

Lying about money — A new study from Finder.com reveals that lying about money is the American way. More than three-quar ters of people surveyed fessed up to having committed dishonest acts for financial gain, mostly without any feelings of guilt or remorse. The study polled more than 2,000 American adults and found that 78 percent intentionally lied about money. The most common acts were pocketing found money and keeping quiet when undercharged.

Claire McGuiness from Grindstone Public House mixed BLOOD & WATER. It features Malfy Gin, Malfy Lemon Gin, dry vermouth, Solerno Blood Orange, clarified lemon juice and blood orange & beet syrup.
Conceived by local musicians as a way to combine live performances with fund raising, the second RISE Fest — featuring a combined eight local bands and artists on two stages — will be presented from 1 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Sept. 17 at Spencer Farm Winery, 7015 E. 161st St., in Noblesville.
Ninety percent of proceeds from the free, family-friendly event will benefit four Hamilton County nonprofits: The Cooper House (Noblesville), Open Doors (Westfield), Resounding Joy (Carmel) and Highmark Church (Fishers). The other 10 percent will be awarded as a scholarship to a Hamilton County high school senior who plans to pur sue a music-related degree.
Among the goals for last year’s inaugural RISE Fest fundraiser was for the daylong music festival to be come an annual event. So far, organizers seem poised to accomplish that objective.

In November 1992, the Seattle grunge music scene was exploding in its popu larity. While the angsty grunge fans were rocking in their flannel shirts, Nir vana frontman Kurt Cobain was penning hits including “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” “Come As You Are” and “Lithium.”Ifthose songs don’t sound familiar, that’s OK. What’s notable is what hap penedWhilenext.fans were riding the grunge wave, a reporter at The New York Times wanted to inform readers about the growing subculture. A freelance reporter named Rick Marin phoned Megan Jasper, who, at the time, was a sales represen tative for Seattle record label Caroline Records.Jasper, who had recently been laid off from legendary grunge label Sub Pop Re cords as its receptionist, decided to have a little fun at the Times’ expense. Marin phoned to ask about any slang terms used in the grunge subculture. Jasper
was more than happy to rattle off some fake terms, which became known as “grunge speak.”
This wasn’t the first, or last, time fake news showed up in a well-respected newspaper. The fact that Marin swallowed Jasper’s made-up terms hook. line and sinker surprised even Jasper herself.
TRAVELLIFESTYLE
When Marin inquired about grunge terminology, Jasper enlightened him with these made-up phrases, which soon after appeared in the pages of the Times: “wack slacks” (old ripped jeans, “cob nobbler” (loser), “fuzz” (heavy wool sweaters), “bound-and-hagged” (staying home on Fri day or Saturday night) and even “swingin’ on the flippity-flop” (hanging out). These terms and 10 others appeared as grunge gospel in Marin’s Nov. 15 article, “Grunge: A Success Story.”

kitchen, allows visitors to listen to record ings of FDR’s fireside chats. Other exhibits remember his four campaigns for president, including rare recordings from the earliest days of television. Other exhibits display some of his famous statements and speech es, including his famous articulation of the “four freedoms” in January 1941. If you are near Hyde Park, a visit to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library and Museum is a must.
13, 2022
Today, as we continue our road trip to and from Cape Cod, we make the last stop in Hyde Park, N.Y., visiting the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presiden tial Library and Museum. Before Franklin D. Roosevelt, presidents considered documents and other materials created during their terms their personal property. Some sold or destroyed them, and others donated them to the Library of Con gress or other institutions. President Roos evelt wanted a better system for preserving what he considered public property. In 1939, Roosevelt convinced his mother, Sara, to do nate 16 acres of land from her Springwood Estate for a library for items created during his service as president and his prior public service, including as governor of New York. Roosevelt, an amateur architect, helped de sign the library building in the Dutch Colo nial style. This first presidential library, built with private funds, was dedicated on June 30, 1941, early in FDR’s unprecedented third term. Roosevelt often visited the library and made some of his famous fireside chats from a studio inside the building.
