Good morning, Scioto County. A chilling reminder of workplace dangers emerged this week as a Boyd County detention deputy battles back from the brink after a mysterious substance exposure during routine intake procedures. Initially placed on a ventilator in critical condition, officials report encouraging signs as the officer is now awake and communicating, while a second deputy with milder symptoms has already been released. Authorities have completed decontamination procedures and confirm no connection to previous incidents as their investigation continues.
Meanwhile, the spirit of generosity tees off next month at the 12th annual ACTC Golf Scramble, an event that has raised an impressive $245,000 over its history. This year's September 26th gathering at Bellefonte Country Club holds special significance as it honors the memory of Al Flath, the beloved co-chair who passed away in January. With player fees of $175 and sponsorship opportunities ranging up to $5,000, the scramble continues its mission of funding scholarships for deserving students.
