13-year-old hit while riding bike
WAYNE – A 13-year-old boy was transported by air ambulance Monday after a collision with a car in front
of his home.
The Wood County Sheriff’s Office reports that at about 1:30 p.m. Brandon Williamson, of Wayne, was riding
a bicycle west on Ohio 281 around Huffman Road and was struck by a vehicle driven by Ellen Dalton, of
Wayne, which was traveling in the same direction.
The report states that Dalton observed Williamson and honked the car horn. According to the report,
Dalton’s Chevy Blazer slowed down and attempted to pass as the bicycle swerved into the path of the car.

Williamson was taken to St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center by Life Flight with incapacitating injuries, and
Dalton and a passenger were treated at the scene.
A press release from the sheriff’s office stated the juvenile was in critical condition.
Central Joint Fire Department first responded to the scheme. Bowling Green Rescue Squad later arrived for
mutual aid with an ambulance.
The crash remains under investigation.

Deputies called to dispute at Tontogany Fest
TONTOGANY – The Wood County Sheriff’s Office responded to an altercation Friday at the Tontogany Festival
but, citing conflicting stories, opted not to file charges.
According to the incident report, deputies dispatched to the festival at 18540 Main St. after 11 p.m. in
reference to a dispute. A Bowling Green woman at the scene accused a Tontogany man of striking her, and
her son said he was pushed by the man. The Tontogany man said the woman and her son and their friends
were taunting his wife and that he was pushed and hit during the altercation.
Both parties were advised that a report would be on file and that they could pursue charges through the
