State Farm systems were impacted, like many other businesses, by the data center issue AWS had.

State Farm is aware of the issue and working hard to find workarounds.

Many users have reported that they cannot access their account or complete quotes online, this is part of the issue.

We have limited system capabilities in office and just got access back to our system texts.

We apologize for any inconvenience this causes you and appreciate your patience. As soon as systems are up we will work diligently to complete all service requests in the order they are received.

Thank you for your understanding.

We have a power outage, I suspect it’s from the line work being done on Oak Drive. I hope it’s intended shutdown and a linesman didn’t get injured. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we wait for service to be restored.

Estimated repair time is 3:15pm.

Thank you.

𝗖𝗛𝗜𝗟𝗗 𝗠𝗢𝗟𝗘𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗦𝗨𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗧 𝗪𝗔𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗗 | The South Bend Police Department is seeking the public’s assistance in locating a suspect charged in a child molesting case in South Bend. We want to warn you – some of the details in this post are disturbing.

In May, a teenager reported to a SBPD School Resource Officer that she was sexually assaulted before school that day. The victim stated she missed her school bus, so she walked to school. The victim stated that while walking in the 200 block of N. Olive Street, a black SUV pulled over and the male driver told her to get into the vehicle.

The victim stated she saw a car seat in the backseat of the SUV so she thought it would be safe to get in. The victim then asked the male to drive her to her school. The victim stated that they ultimately parked near an abandoned house, and the male sexually assaulted her.

The victim said that the male then dropped her off near the school.

Through an investigation by the South Bend Police Department and the St. Joseph County Special Victims Unit, 37-year-old Brandon Pryor was identified as a suspect. In late June, the St. Joseph County Prosecutor’s Office charged Pryor with two counts of Child Molesting. His warrant was initially sealed to allow law enforcement to locate Pryor and take him into custody. However, because he has not yet been located, his warrant has been unsealed, allowing this information to be shared publicly.

Brandon Pryor is described as 6’1”, 205 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

He should be considered armed and dangerous. Pryor has been known to drive several different vehicles. He was identified as driving a black Chevrolet Tahoe during the incident in May… but most recently, he was seen in a dark-colored BMW SUV with an unknown plate number.

Pryor has ties to South Bend, Chicago and Indianapolis. He is believed to be in the Chicago area now.

If you see Pryor, do not approach him. Instead, call 9-1-1. Additionally, tips about Pryor’s whereabouts can be shared anonymously through Michiana Crime Stoppers by calling 574-288-STOP or visiting p3tips.com/203. Crime Stoppers does not have caller ID or IP address tracking.

Please remember, all persons are presumed innocent until/unless convicted in a court of law.

There have been recent issues with this intersection at Lake Ave, S. Oak Rd, and Hillcrest. Drivers that are northbound and going to turn right (east) onto Lake Ave have to stop if there is a red light. This is not a merge lane and does not have a yield sign therefore you must obey the traffic signals. You can turn right on red at this intersection if you come to a complete stop and then yield to any traffic that has the right of way. The solid white line at the intersection is the stop line indicating where you should stop at a red light. All traffic control devices are placed by the State Hwy Dept as Lake Ave is a State Highway (SR 17).
