PETERSBURG —
PIKE COUNTY — Saturday, at approximately 12:05 a.m., Indiana State Police Trooper John Davis and Pike County Deputy Dallas Killian responded to CRs 700N and 775W to assist the driver of a pickup truck that was hung up in the roadway.
The driver, identified as Daniel Dunn, 32, of Charlestown, was still attempting to free his pickup truck from the mud when officers arrived. Trooper Davis detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage on Dunn’s breath. Dunn also had bloodshot eyes, slurred speech, and his balance was unstable.
Trooper Davis also determined that Dunn had been attempting to free his vehicle for approximately two hours while Dunn’s 2-year-old son and two adult passengers were in the truck.
Further investigation revealed Dunn had a blood alcohol content of .15 percent. He was arrested and taken to the Pike County Jail, where he was held without bond for driving while intoxicated and neglect of a dependent, both Class D felonies.
Dunn’s 2-year-old son was later released to his grandfather.

IU still working towards sixth banner
Monday night in Atlanta, Louisville won the school’s first National Championship since the year I was born - 1986. This accomplishment is significant to Indiana basketball fans, because the last two times the Cardinals cut down the nets (1980, 1986), the Hoosiers did it the following year. The stat, of course means nothing, other than both schools had strong programs in the 1980s.

Kebabs: Health kick on a stick
Grilling is a simple way to feed your family well this summer. Start with a lean meat and a healthful marinade and then allow the grill to strip away additional fat for a heart-healthy and waist-friendly final result. Plus, grilling caramelizes the natural sugars in foods, which adds flavor without additional calories and fat.
