Fort Wayne Mayor Rides Political Roller Coaster

(FORT WAYNE) - In just 100 days, Mayor Tom Henry has had a pretty wild ride.

Since taking office in January, Fort Wayne's new mayor likened his time to a roller coaster with dramatic highs and lows. He's met both democratic presidential candidates, but has also had to manage a February flood and recently saw a rash of shootings in his city with nine homicides in a week.

Henry has yet to start major initiatives, instead focusing on his campaign promises to make city hall more accessible and continuing many of the programs initiated by former Mayor Graham Richard.
