Kinsey Institute funding, grain entrapments, alcohol cancer risks | Indiana Newsdesk

 

Coming up on  Indiana Newsdesk:

Some state officials want to defund Indiana University because of its continued association with the Kinsey Institute. The university maintains it’s following the law and that the institute no longer uses any state funding.

Grain entrapments are the leading cause of agricultural confined space injuries and deaths – killing around two dozen people every year. Officials say education and safety procedures are the best way to prevent accidents.

And, the U.S. surgeon general wants warning labels on alcohol containers to include risks for cancer.

Those stories and the latest news headlines from across the state, Friday at 6 on  Indiana Newsdesk.
