A Piqua area man is being treated at Grant Medical Center in Columbus after he was pulled from Indian Lake Sunday morning.
Dave L. Shellenberg, 73, was first transported to Mary Rutan Hospital and then to Grant Medical Center in Columbus after the incident at the River Run Harbor, 7634 State Route 368, Huntsville. His condition was upgraded to fair today after being in critical condition Sunday.
Deputies of the Logan County Sheriff’s Office responded to that location about 10:55 a.m. on a report of a man who was found in the water. A passerby happened to find Mr. Shellenberg in the water and called the sheriff’s office.
When deputies arrived, the passerby was hanging onto the sea wall and was attempting to help Mr. Shellenberg.
Deputies continue to investigate this incident, but report that the victim might have attempted to go into the water after his dog. A retractable leash was found near the water. Mr. Shellenberg also had fishing equipment in his vehicle.
