Owner leaves a lot of cans of gasoline outside-sometimes capped, sometimes uncapped--in the strip mall. People smoke at the railing and I think there's a big risk of a fire

This is still the same issue about the cable wire that has been touching my garage roof since the February tornado. I know that it is not Duke's wire. It has been identified as Comcast's wire by a repair man from QC (Comcast's contractor) on Saturday, April 25, 2026. However, Brandon Austin stated that he cannot remove it without the permission of Comcast. I called the 800 XFINITY number and requested that they remove it asap. Here is my work order #: ECM0021457478. I am very concerned because both transformers on either side of my house have been hit by the recent storms. Today, we are having another storm. Can you help prioritize this situation so that I do not have a fire enabled by the cable wire on my garage? Also, I am NOT a Comcast/Xfinity customer. This wire goes into my basement via a window and has never been in use since I purchased this house in 2020. The wire attaches to the outside pole and is connected to the Comcast system per Brandon, the QC repair man. Thank you, Elida C. Behar Monday, April 27, 2026

I am reporting a possible overcrowding/fire safety issue at Kilroy’s Sports, 319 N Walnut St, Bloomington, IN 47404, during the Chainsmokers-related event on Thursday night, April 23, 2026, continuing into early April 24. Both the downstairs and upstairs areas appeared dangerously overcrowded. People were packed tightly in both areas, and movement was extremely difficult. I have videos showing the crowd conditions upstairs and downstairs. Many guests remained packed inside because the event repeatedly suggested The Chainsmokers would perform downstairs, but the venue did not clearly clarify that they were not coming downstairs. The crowd continued waiting in unsafe conditions. I am concerned that both the upstairs and downstairs areas may have exceeded safe occupancy limits and that the crowding could have interfered with safe exiting in an emergency. Please forward this to the appropriate fire/code enforcement department for review. I can provide videos, photos, timestamps, and witness information if needed. Thank you!

U Report # 210060 Hi again, I'm following up from yesterday's U Report. Duke responded immediately with the information that the wire is a cable line. Duke recommended that I get back to my local Bloomington government because since I've owned this house I have never had cable service, therefore I do not know whose line it belongs to. Do you have any record as to who owns/is responsible for this abandoned cable line? And is there a statute of limitations for an abandoned line - can I cut it down myself? What is the risk of danger if I do so? Any insight that you can provide is appreciated. Sincerely, Elida C. Behar April 22, 2026

permanent obstruction in the egress pathway" or a "fire hazard blocking a hallway exit door on 3rd floor." Dead plants kept for moths rotting away and a tripping hazard for the common area like the hallway. Can't go to management they will immediately tell the person who hold on them. Many tenants have the doorway cluttered with personal belongings that make it hard during a fire to get around them

I was walking in this neighborhood Friday evening around 7:30 - and looking at this map - seems to be 2015 E Marilyn Drive - and smelled smoke - the backyard is not visible on Marilyn but while I continued my walk on S Covenanter Drive I had a view of the open fire - I noticed that this appeared to be a recreational fire - but was not in an approved device - such as a fire pit - and it did not appear that there was a bucket of water or a garden hose nearby.
