Mohican Fire Tower offers spectacular view of the region

EDITOR’S NOTE: This story was originally published by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

PERRYSVILLE — The Mohican Fire Tower is 80-feet tall and was constructed in 1934.

At the time it was built, the Mohican Fire Tower had an average visibility of 10 miles in all directions. This allowed the towerman to keep an eye on approximately 200,000 acres of land.

Mohican Fire Tower vertical

Fire towers were once crucial to spotting forest fires.

Ohio Department of Natural Resources

Beginning in the 1920s and 1930s, fire wardens and foresters used wildfire lookout towers to spot blazes on Ohio lands. Ohio’s fire towers were staffed by lookouts and equipped with binoculars, maps, a radio, telephone, and an alidade – a device used to pinpoint a wildfire location.

Aerial surveillance of wildfires by aircraft began in the 1940s, and Ohio’s fire towers were slowly phased out. The last tower was closed in 1978.

While monitoring from fire towers is a thing of the past, they remain a proud symbol of forest conservation and a monument to the people who worked to preserve our natural resources.

When weather conditions allow, visitors can climb the stairs of the tower at their own risk. From the top of the tower, the Mohican Fire Tower provides a magnificent 360-degree view of the surrounding forests and hills.

Trainer Chris Waller is confident Coastwatch can hold his own when he steps out at Kembla Grange on Saturday.

Hall of Fame trainer Chris Waller maintains Coastwatch is not out of place in the Group 3 $160,000 Up And Coming Stakes (1200m) at Kembla Grange on Saturday.

Coastwatch has managed only a Kensington maiden win in six starts but Waller felt the three-year-old’s first-up fifth to Silent Impact and Concocted at Rosehill was full of merit.

After being three-wide without cover for most of the race, Coastwatch was still in contention halfway down the straight before understandably fading to run fifth.

“Coastwatch was a bit unlucky first-up and he has trained on well since,” Waller said.

“He’s a nice, progressive young horse, I like him.”

Waller’s endorsement suggests Coastwatch could be the value runner at $8.50 in TAB Fixed Odds betting for the Up And Coming Stakes.

Sydney’s premier trainer had nominated unbeaten Starman for the Up And Coming Stakes but elected to start the three-year-old against older horses in the Precise Fire Handicap (1200m).

“I just felt this was the more suitable race for Starman,” Waller said.

The well-bred Zoustar colt, a winner on debut at the Kensington midweeks, is advantaged by his inside barrier and lightweight of 53kg.

Columbus police make flurry of homicide arrests, including one in Coshocton

Columbus police detectives have arrested suspects in four homicides in the city, as well as a suspect in a homicide in Westerville, in the last week. 

On Tuesday night, Coshocton County Sheriff’s Special Response Team deputies assisted Columbus police in arresting 19-year-old Talent Bradley, of Coshocton, at a home on the 700 block of Elm Street there. Bradley, who was taken into custody without incident, has been charged in connection to two separate homicides. 

More: Teen charged in May shooting death of another teen; man’s death on NE Side ruled a homicide

Detectives have accused Bradley of stabbing 63-year-old Randy Gwirtz to death inside Gwirtz’s home on the 1400 block of Fahlander Drive South, located in Columbus’ Woodward Park neighborhood off of Karl Road. Gwirtz was found on June 7 after relatives said they had not been able to get in touch with him for several days. 

Bradley is also accused of killing 62-year-old Robert Goodrich on May 27 inside Goodrich’s home on the 600 block of Mohican Way near Cherrington Elementary School in Westerville. 

Both men are believed to have been stabbed to death on May 26, according to Westerville police.

Court records show Bradley was identified by Columbus police homicide detectives who were able to trace a vehicle registered to Bradley that was seen on surveillance video near Goodrich’s home, as well as cellphone records that indicated Bradley had searched for Gwirtz’s address prior to his death.

Westerville police also said Bradley met both men through the dating app Grindr.

Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Community leads archaeology dig

STOCKBRIDGE, Mass. – Members of the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Community are conducting an archaeological dig on the banks of the Housatonic River, their ancestral home. 

What You Need To Know

  • The Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Community is leading an archeology dig in Stockbridge
  • They’re looking for the site of a 1783 ox roast organized by George Washington
  •  Land seizures and forced removals caused the tribe to relocate to Wisconsin in the 1800s
  • Projects like these allow current members to stay connected to their ancestral lands

“Our time in Stockbridge is a huge part of our history,” said tribal historic preservation manager, Bonney Hartley. “It’s part of our ancient history, but also in the 18th century, it was a colonial town, called ‘Indiantown’. It was founded specifically for our people, so direct ancestors of mine and everyone in our tribe today all come back to our time in Stockbridge.”

They’re looking for evidence of a 1783 ox roast, organized by George Washington to thank members of the tribe for their service in the Revolutionary War.

“We’re hoping to find evidence of possibly the ox roast feast itself,” said Hartley. “So for example, evidence of the cooking materials for the ox, which was described as like a 1,100-pound ox that was brought here, or where the spit or where the other kinds of cooking implements were.”

Monday was the first day of digging at the site, and they haven’t found anything yet. However, thanks to previous surveys, archaeologist Nathan Allison is pretty sure they’re going to make a discovery.

“We’ve identified a number of anomalies to ground-truth, or excavate, and see what we see under there,” said Allison. “So a number of those things were metallic objects like large iron objects, or burned features, which might…

Ohio threatens to suspend admissions, revoke license of youth behavioral facility

10 Investigates review of two years’ worth of police records and incident reports submitted to the state show a recurring pattern of incidents there.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Citing “substantiated findings of a significant nature,” Ohio is threatening to suspend admissions of teens and revoke the license of Mohican Young Star Academy – a youth behavioral treatment facility in Ashland County.

10 Investigates review of two years’ worth of police records and incident reports submitted to the state show a recurring pattern of incidents there – including teens who routinely run away from the facility, staff who allege they’ve been injured and assaulted by teens and teens claiming they too were harmed during restraint holds by staff members.

In its July 27 letter to Mohican Young Star Academy, the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services notes that the Ashland County Sheriff’s Office has responded more than 100 times to the facility in the past 18 months “to manage crisis situations at the facility.”

Because of the drain on resources and the recurring number of incidents, the Ashland County Sheriff’s Office told 10 Investigates Thursday that as of July, it will no longer serve as the primary responding agency to the facility. 

Instead, it has asked to serve as a backup agency responding when the Ohio Department of Natural Resources or Ohio State Highway Patrol requests help.

Body camera video obtained by 10 Investigates shows deputies have expressed frustration about returning to the facility for a repeated pattern of events.

“Now I am down here filing two separate assault reports,” one sheriff’s deputy can be heard saying after he had responded to the facility three times in the span of a week – each time to file an assault report on an unruly teen.

A 10 Investigates review of the…

Robbie WilliamsRobbie Williams cuts son’s hair into matching mohawk so they look identical

Robbie Williams’ took matters into his own hands at the weekend when his son wanted to look just like him.

Charlie, six, requested the same Mohican hairstyle as his singer dad and he duly obliged with the family clippers.

In a video filmed by Robbie’s wife, and Charlie’s mum Ayda Field, Robbie set to work giving his son the makeover.

“So what’s happening, daddy?” Ayda asked, to which 47-year-old Robbie responded: “Charlie wants a mohawk.”

Looking like he had done it before, Robbie skillfully shaved his son’s head, as the youngster was seemingly oblivious playing a golf game on his phone.

Clearly proud of his own work, Robbie gave a thumbs up to the camera afterwards.

Charlie asked for the same haircut Robbie Williams can’t contain his excitement after England’s emphatic Euro 2020 win Robbie Williams left completely bald as wife Ayda Field shaves his hair off

“‘likefatherlifeson.”
