Good morning, Fort Wayne.

A crash on Fort Wayne’s south side closed westbound I-469 between Muldoon and Winchester Roads around 6:15 a.m. Thursday when two semis collided and one leaked 250 gallons of diesel fuel—state police directed drivers to exit onto a County Road and use Bluffton Road to rejoin the highway.

Jurors on Thursday found a 37-year-old Fort Wayne woman guilty of murdering her boyfriend during a 2023 stabbing in southeast Fort Wayne—she faces 45 to 65 years in prison and will be sentenced on May 23 at 8:30 a.m.

Fort Wayne Community Schools held its 9th annual English Language Learners Family Night at Study Elementary on Thursday evening, offering language support and celebrating community diversity with cultural displays, traditional food, and performances.

School officials noted the event drew a nearly full parking lot—much higher than the 20 attendees nine years ago—and said they will hold a 10th annual event next year.

Indiana Governor Mike Braun said lawmakers reached a deal that includes Amendment 36 to Senate Bill 1 to help lower taxes for homeowners.

He urged the Senate to send the bill to his desk soon so he can sign it into law.

Officials confirmed six measles cases in Allen County, with four cases among unvaccinated minors and two in adults, and said all cases are connected.
