Rising Sun council deciding fate of police department

RISING SUN – The city is holding discussions to consider closing its police department, according to multiple sources.

In the event of the department disbanding, the Ohio County Sheriff’s Office would take over the service of Rising Sun.

The proposition comes as the number of officers serving the Rising Sun Police Department has gotten smaller in recent years. Following a string of officer retirements and the recent arrest of former police chief Harlis Steven Hoover, the department currently has only five officers and a sergeant and has been operating without higher leadership for some time.

According to Ohio County Sheriff Tom Baxter and Rising Sun city attorney Andrew Baudendistel, the conversation surrounding disbanding the police department has come and gone over the last 20 or so years. However, Baxter said the city approached the Ohio County Sheriff’s Office with the current proposition near the end of 2023.
