DENNISON A wanted 19-year-old Uhrichsville man was rescued from the ice atop Stillwater Creek on Tuesday night after fleeing from police.
Deputies got Glenn D.W. Skinner off the ice so emergency medical workers could treat him, according to Tuscarawas County Sheriff Orvis Campbell. Looks like the guys did a great job and could very well have saved Mr. Skinner, Campbell said by email.
He credited deputies Chris Edwards, Brian Hale and Dave Digenova with rescuing Skinner, along with K-9 Bruno.
Skinner was unresponsive when they found him, according to Edwards initial report of the incident. Deputies removed him from the ice and dragged him to U.S. Route 250. Uhrichsville Fire Department paramedics took him from the road to a hospital for treatment of severe hypothermia.

While racial unrest, the 2020 election and big city projects were all hot topics, COVID-19 sat atop everyone’s list, including Overland Park Council President Kurt Skoog who stood in for Mayor Carl Gerlach.
