Shots fired during road rage incident in Wayne Township; Dundee teen in custody
DUNDEE ‒ A 19-year-old Dundee man is being held in the Tuscarawas County Jail after several shots were fired during a road rage incident Saturday night in Wayne Township. The suspect is facing two counts of improperly handling of firearms in a motor vehicle, a fourth-degree felony; and one count of aggravated menacing, a first-degree misdemeanor. According to an announcement from the Tuscarawas County Sheriff's Office, a 34-year-old New Philadelphia man reported the road rage incident at around 8:09 p.m. He said an unknown person fired a gun from a moving vehicle. The incident began in the Wilmot area and continued into Tuscarawas County, said Detective Capt. Adam Fisher of the sheriff's office. Witnesses told deputies that between six and seven shots were fired in the Walnut Creek Bottom Road and Dundee Wilmot Road area of Wayne Township. Police later located a shell casing at the intersection of those two roads, Fisher said. The New Philadelphia man provided a description of the suspect's vehicle, a Ford Focus, which was found in Dundee. After talking with the owner of the vehicle, deputies determined that the 19-year-old was the person who fired the gun, Fisher said. When the suspect was searched, several spent shell casings were found in his pocket. They matched the shell casing found at the intersection. The weapon used in the incident, a .40 caliber handgun, had been thrown into a nearby creek. Witnesses provided a general area for deputies to search, he said. The Holmes County Sheriff's Office was contacted, and that agency provided a K-9 to assist in the search. The weapon was found in a shoebox in the creek.

Temple coach and lifelong Eagles fan Adam Fisher recalls missing part of Super Bowl 2025
While the Philadelphia Eagles were clobbering the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, the Temple men's basketball team was stuck on a plane home without wifi after losing to No. 17 Memphis in Tennessee. Temple was one of several Big 5 teams that played on Super Bowl Sunday, but unlike Villanova and La Salle — both played at home — the Owls had a scheduled road game. On Sunday night, the Owls were on their way back from Memphis, on a plane without Wi-Fi or the technology to watch Super Bowl LIX or even check the score on their phones. "I finally asked the pilot if he could get us a score update at one point," said Temple head coach Adam Fisher, a Bucks County native. "He couldn't tell if it was 14-0 or 16-0. It was very confusing. And he was like, 'And there's an interception.' So we were confused. But right when we landed, it was right to basically the very end of the first half." As the players got signal again, they realized the good news: the Birds were up 24-0. "And then you just heard our plane erupt. I'm really happy, being a lifelong Eagles fan," Fisher said. "It was a great moment to see that score at halftime." Fisher got to make the second half a family affair. "My car was at the airport, so I made it home and got to watch it — just my 4-year-old daughter and my wife, Rebecca, who's also from Philly," Fisher said. "So kind of a cool moment." La Salle head coach Fran Dunphy had a similar experience during the Eagles' Super Bowl win in 2018. "I was coaching at Temple. We were at Tulane. We got off the plane. It was a chartered flight," Dunphy said. "A bunch of guys ran into the waiting area to see if they could catch the end of the game. I was just thrilled that they were doing well. It looked like they were going to win the game." Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts, who serves as the Eagles' "point guard" at quarterback.
