@INBMV Thank you so much! I appreciate it.

@TinaSwarens We absolutely agree! We try to always get these posted and are sorry we did not do so in time today. The good news is the issue has been resolved! Thank you for your patience.

.@INBMV says its computer network is currently down and that this has been happening lately. Anyone else get turned away because of this? Trying to drivers license renewed.

@INBMV Thank you for getting back to me. It would be good to alert people when this system is down on BMV’s social media accounts to save them a wasted trip to BMV.

@TinaSwarens Thanks for tagging us! Our team is working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We will post an update as soon as it is back online. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

So @joetamborello, do you approve?

And here is our first Scrub Hub story. A reader asked us to take a look at @IndyMayorJoe and @SustainIndy's record when it comes to sustainability. We looked at the plans, spoke with environmental groups and with the city itself. Here's what we found: indystar.com/story/news/env…

The new Indiana Avenue #BLM mural has been defaced. It’s been one week. Every one of the characters has been splattered with grey or white paint.

I've written about how venues planned to problem-solve during all of this, and now we're seeing the fruits of those labors in the form of new outdoor spots — where many people are feeling a heck of a lot more comfortable right now. indystar.com/story/entertai…

“We could be broke in 90 days,” farmer Greg Gunthorp said, “but we may also be able to come out of this thing a whole lot better.” Some farmers have been hurt by the pandemic, but a small niche has seen a big boom in business. indystar.com/story/news/env…

WARNING GRAPHIC PHOTOS Some of the injuries suffered by Ivoré Westfield after being shot with pepper balls and hit with batons by IMPD officers who arrested her for violating curfew after protests on May 31. She was in jail until June 2 & said she got no medical treatment.

Attorney Terrance Kinnard discusses a federal lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court on behalf of Ivoré Westfield, Rachel Harding. The women filed an excessive force lawsuit against four IMPD officers captured on video using batons and pepper balls to subdue one of them.

“We’ve been here for more than 100 years. This is the city’s restaurant, and we feel like it’s our responsibility to make this place thrive through the good and bad times." Craig Huse on @stelmo For @IndyStar subscribers: indystar.com/story/entertai…

Of course, Indiana has been doing this for years. We have one of the largest -- if not the largest -- private school voucher programs in the country and the vast majority of participating schools are religious.

My @indystar colleagues deserved Pulitzer Prize.

These are the horrible violence numbers in Indy. In the last 233 days there have been 490 people shot, 189 people stabbed, & 131 people Killed. In 2020 there have been106 people killed by another human being in less than 6 months. #WhereIsTheOutrage #EnoughIsEnough

Glad to see @TwoChicksIndy investing in Bates-Hendricks neighborhood. 👏

.@joetamborello ranks among the best visual journalists around! He captures truly unique views of our city for us to enjoy and ponder.

The Wine Market in Fountain Square has wine slushees 😎

.@tianarochon reporting that one of the shootings last night ended up being fatal. This marks two homicides at the Towne and Terrace condo complex within a week.

Look, I know it's Friday morning, but this is a fascinating, important topic. I think you'll be surprised by the KKK-era origins and dramatic evolution of a legal doctrine that now routinely protects police officers from civil action. #qualifiedimmunity indystar.com/story/news/pol…
