If you are on Facebook, and from Evansville, you need to follow EvansvilleWatch. There are two different places on Facebook that use the same name, but the intention of each is the same. Someone listens to the police scanner, and passes anything good on to those following on Facebook. It is a modern version of a police blotter, that would sometimes be found in newspapers.

You get your usual wrecks and people fighting calls, but every once in awhile there is that gem in the rough. After collecting for the past few weeks, I'm ready to share some of the best items that have been found on EvansvilleWatch. If you see anything good, feel free to post it on here.
