Drone footage captures Indiana flood devastation as storms trigger state emergency

Dramatic drone video shows floodwaters swallowing streets and a pedestrian bridge in Pendleton as eastern Indiana deals with torrential rainfall, widespread flooding, and multiple severe-weather alerts. Fall Creek rose dramatically downstream, counties issued flood watches and warnings, and storms brought damaging winds up to 70 mph with a derecho causing near-100 mph gusts in Gary. Gov. Mike Braun declared a 30-day statewide disaster emergency and mobilized state resources; the Indiana National Guard is deployed and officials are pursuing federal aid. Communities from Cambridge City to New Castle and Muncie faced power outages, boil-water advisories, and substantial property damage, with New Castle recording over 11 inches of rain in 48 hours and Indianapolis seeing year-to-date rainfall exceed normal levels. More rain is forecast, prompting ongoing vigilance and recovery efforts.
