The night will feature performances from artists signed to Nkosi Records, the label founded by Evansville Police Detective Nathan Schroer who passed away earlier this week after a 10 year battle with leukemia.

The 11-year veteran of the Evansville Police Department passed away after a second fight with the disease in 10 years.

The Evansville Police Department announced earlier today they have identified, and are searching for 26-year-old Antoine M. Russell as the second suspect in a stabbing late Monday night on the city's north side.

Investigators with the Evansville Police Department believe 34-year-old Edward Ivy held a victim at gunpoint while another, unidentified suspect stabbed them late last night on Evansville's north side, leaving the victim with life threatening injuries.

Steven James Vile is behind bars after investigators from the Vanderburgh County Sheriff's Office, Evansville Police Department, and Warrick County Sheriff's Office leads to the discovery of items recently reported stolen from various businesses in the area, and the Highland Youth Baseball Club.

Items stolen include a John Deere Gator ATV 4 x 2 and pitching machines.

Jacob Higgins is wanted on attempted murder charges in connection with a hit and run that took place on Pearl Drive which left one victim hospitalized with multiple serious injuries.

Despite the way it sounds, the news comes with a silver lining.

In an effort to give the public a better understanding of how they operate, the Evansville Police Department is giving residents an opportunity to learn more about their inner workings.

Law Enforcement on the local and state level will be keeping their eyes open for drivers not  wearing their safety belt while traveling the states highways and byways.
