Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb extending restaurant and bar restrictions in response to COVID-19.
Governor Holcomb signed the executive order on Tuesday.
All bars, nightclubs, and restaurants are ordered to remain closed to dine-in patrons until 11:59 pm on April 6th. They can continue providing take-out and delivery services.
