Fort Wayne Mayor Sharon Tucker

Allen County Sheriff Troy Hershberger and Fort Wayne Mayor Sharon Tucker held a press conference Wednesday to address recent violence within the community.

The bar sits outside the city limits, but the viral video of a black patron being assaulted by a number of white men, a number of whom were sporting gang regalia, has drawn national attention.

The groups, created Tuesday night by City Council, will focus on young people, mental health, and addiction.

The goal of the facility is to establish Fort Wayne as a “key youth and adaptive sports tourism destination.”

Fort Wayne Community Schools sent out a letter to families reaffirming their commitment to student safety, while Mayor Sharon Tucker said she has no authority to halt any ICE movement within the city.

The $49 million is spread throughout the city and involves everything from pavement to trail extensions.

The budget is the first for Mayor Sharon Tucker who took over mid-year for the late Tom Henry.

At a press conference on Thursday, Fort Wayne Mayor Sharon Tucker unveiled her first budget proposal as mayor.

Roughly a month after implementing a pause on the organization in the city, Fort Wayne Mayor Sharon Tucker said she sent them an offer, and they want to meet.

Mayor Sharon Tucker says it will be shown to the family of 22-year-old Linzell Parhm before it shown to the public.
