Good morning, Evansville.

State DMVs in Colorado, Indiana, Minnesota, California, Michigan and North Carolina warned residents about text scams that claim unpaid toll charges or traffic ticket penalties and include false administrative codes and links (advising residents to verify all messages with trusted contacts and report any suspicious texts).

Today, the River City Pride Parade and festival brought people together on Main Street as locals and visitors celebrated diversity—local businesses saw an increase in foot traffic, and residents like Danniece Henderson shared their support for the event.

The celebration highlighted the community’s commitment to inclusion without letting the weather slow down the festivities.
