According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol New Philadelphia Post and the Tuscarawas County Sheriff's office, troopers stopped shortly before 2 a.m. to check on a 1994 Chevrolet pickup truck that was partially on the road on I-77 near State Route 80.
Authorities said the driver exhibited"concerning behavior," and a Crisis Intervention Team-trained sheriff's deputy was dispatched to assist troopers."The units on scene made exhaustive efforts to include retrieving him food and drink, offering crisis services and assuring him repeatedly that they only wanted to get him help," the sheriff's office said.Authorities said the gun was still in the man's hand when it was recovered.
I believe that the investigation will reveal that all of the law enforcement on scene acted honorably and as trained and that this community will be proud of their extensive efforts during this long incident even though it ended tragically. My thanks to the civilian witness, the Dover Fire Department, The Ohio State Highway Patrol, Smith Ambulance service, the Ohio Department of Transportation and the Tuscarawas County Coroner’s Office for their assistance on scene. Ohio BCI is conducting a review of the shooting.
