Local first responders were called to the scene of a pleasure boat fire on Sunday afternoon near the Middleport levee. According to a post from the Middleport
Volunteer Fire Department, at 1:20 p.m., Engine 12, Rescue 17, and Boat 10 responded to a pleasure boat fire north of the levee. Boat 10 towed the burning boat to the
levee for extinguishment. The boat eventually sank and was pulled onto shore by Rescue. Oil containment booms were put in place due to leaking fuel. The Middleport

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va.
— Filming for the television

on the Travel Channel took
place in Point Pleasant last

legends of the city, six of those
residents were students from
Point Pleasant Junior/Senior
High School including LeeAnn
Anderson, Jarred Fairchild,
Eli Burns, Jene McCarthy, C.J.
Thornton, and Kevin Jones.
On Wednesday, the students
met at the West Virginia Farm
Museum for ﬁlming.
Anderson, who portrayed the
character Mrs. Scarberry, said,
“The skit is about the ﬁrst couple to be said to have seen the
Mothman in person. It is about
their experience and thoughts
about seeing the creature and

their reactions as well.”
Anderson was approached by
the casting director to play this
role, which Anderson shared
she is very appreciative for this
gesture as this was an “amazing and incredible” experience
for her.
“It was a total surprise, but a
great experience none the less,”
said Anderson. “I feel very honored to be apart of this amazing project and interesting part
of history. I have always been
a nut for the histories of small
towns, so to be apart of this
project was a true and surreal
moment for me.”
Anderson also extended a
thank you to Jeff Wittman, the
students theater director, for
pulling the cast together and
preparing them for this assignment.
Burns, who portrayed the
character Mr. Mallette, added,
“We ﬁlmed on roads close to
the farm museum. It was very

Burns explained in this portion of the skit the Mallettes
and the Scarberrys see the
Mothman while driving in their
car through the TNT area.
“Mr. Wittman, my theater
director, asked me if I would
be interested in playing the
role of Steve Mallette because I

“I always dreamed about acting, but this whole chance to

Having a goal to reach
can be a healthy pursuit.
Reaching one goal is
reason enough to try for
another. Perhaps there
would be fewer depressed
people if they all chose at
least one thing to live for.
Guest, Phil Heck,
shared a humorous, true
life story about his Baltimore cousin, Charles.
It seemed that Charles
suffered from trespassers during the night who
came onto his property
and tore up his red clay
driveway with their
four-wheel-drive trucks.
Every morning, he had
to smooth the driveway’s
surface again. An idea
came to Charles to plant
posts in the driveway,
just low enough not to
be seen in the dark, but
high enough to catch the
steering mechanism of
the trespassers’ trucks.
Next time they came,
the trucks became immobilized and the drivers
skedaddled. With tags
and registration information left behind, you can
be sure the sheriff had no

trouble ﬁnding the guilty
culprits. Problem solved.
Patrecia Gray reviewed
a lesson entitled “Cutting
the Flab” from Sandy
Tritt’s “Writer’s Workbook.” Important to creating a strong work of prose
is putting our words on a
diet, ﬁrst of all, and then
adding bulk in all the
right places. Limit the
use of adverbs, adjectives,
prepositional phrases,
italics, bold type, ellipses,
and exclamation points.
Try not to use the word
“that” whenever possible.
For example, “The young
student knew that attending school is important.”
If eliminating the word
“that” still makes sense of
the sentence, it is considered “ﬂab.”

Gunman was fired from job, called FBI before shooting
By Paul J. Weber
and Jake Bleiberg
Associated Press

ODESSA, Texas — The
gunman in a spate of violence after a routine trafﬁc stop in West Texas had
just been ﬁred from his
job and called both police
and the FBI before the
shooting began, authorities said Monday.
Odessa Police Chief
Michael Gerke said
36-year-old Seth Aaron

Services. He said both
Ator and the company

but that Ator was gone by
the time police showed
up. FBI special agent
Christopher Combs says
Ator’s statements on the
phone were “rambling.”
Authorities said Ator
killed seven people and
injured at least 22 others
Saturday before ofﬁcers
killed him outside a busy
movie theater in Odessa.
Combs said Ator “was
on a long spiral down”
before the shooting and
that he went to work that
day “in trouble.”
“This did not happen
because he was ﬁred.

show Ator was arrested
in 2001 for a misdemeanor offense that would not
have prevented him from
legally purchasing ﬁrearms in Texas, although
authorities have not said
where Ator got the “AR
style” weapon he used.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott
tweeted Monday that
“we must keep guns
out of criminals’ hands”
— words similar to his
remarks that followed
another mass shooting in
El Paso on Aug. 3, when
he said ﬁrearms must
be kept from “deranged

been noncommittal about
tightening Texas gun

He also tweeted that
Ator failed a previous gun

“We’re out here in the

told the crowd. “All we’ve

The attack began Saturday afternoon when

Texas state troopers tried
pulling over a gold car on
Interstate 20 for failing to
signal a left turn. Before
the vehicle came to a
complete stop, the driver
“pointed a riﬂe toward
the rear window of his
car and ﬁred several
shots” toward the patrol
car stopping him, according to Texas Department
of Public Safety spokeswoman Katherine Cesinger. The gunshots struck
a trooper, Cesinger said,
after which the gunman
ﬂed and continued shooting. He ﬁred at random

disabling the vehicle.
The gunman then ﬁred at

“Local law enforcement and state troopers

him from possibly going
into a crowded movie theater and having another

FBI special agent Christopher Combs said.

CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — No ﬂight was needed
… because the Eagles ran away with this one.
The Eastern football team churned out 439
yards of total offense and seven touchdowns — all
on the ground — while rolling to a 47-20 victory
over host Huntington on Friday night in a Week 1
non-conference matchup in Ross County.
The visiting Eagles (1-0) led wire-to-wire after
building an early 14-0 advantage in the ﬁrst quarter on touchdown runs of ﬁve yards and two yards
by Steve Fitzgerald, but the Huntsmen (0-1) countered with a Dalton Haubeil 3-yard run that left
the score at 14-8 through one period of play.
Blake Newland scampered 41 yards to paydirt
early in the second frame to increase the lead
back out 20-8, but Haubeil answered by hauling
in a 19-yard TD pass that closed the gap back to
20-14. Fitzgerald ended the ﬁrst half scoring with
a 2-yard run for a 27-14 cushion at the break.
Fitzgerald tacked on his fourth and ﬁnal rushing
score of the night with a 1-yard run early in the
third, giving the Green and White a 34-14 lead.
Haubeil, however, answered with his third TD of
the game moments later following a 75-yard kickoff return that closed the gap down to 34-20.
Newland added a 7-yard scamper for his second
rushing TD while the guests increased their lead
out to 41-20 entering the fourth period.
Brayden Smith tacked on a 63-yard run in the
ﬁnale to wrap up the 27-point triumph.
Eastern claimed a 21-8 advantage in ﬁrst downs
and also held HHS to just 121 yards of total
offense, including negative six yards through the
air. Both teams also committed a single turnover
apiece.
EHS was ﬂagged nine times for 55 yards, while
the hosts were penalized seven times for 54 yards.
Newland led the Eagles with 181 rushing yards
on 30 carries, while Fitzgerald added 125 yards on
19 attempts. Connor Ridenour came up empty on
four pass attempts for zero yards.

Thundering Herd

season opener

HUNTINGTON, W.Va.
— Once the Herd got it
going, it sure was tough
to stop.
The Marshall football
team churned out 620
total yards of offense and
claimed their ninth consecutive season-opening
victory on Saturday with
a convincing 56-17 decision over visiting Virginia
Military Institute at Joan
C. Edwards Stadium in
Cabell County.
The Thundering Herd
(1-0) mustered only
seven yards on a pair of
three-and-outs during
their ﬁrst two offensive
possessions, but the hosts
produced scores on seven
of their next nine possessions en route to a substantial 49-7 cushion with
just over four minutes left
in the third period.
The Keydets (0-1) rallied with a pair of consecutive scoring drives that
allowed the Red and Gold
to close back to within
49-17 with 8:48 left in
regulation.
The Green and White
— who had seven different players account for
touchdowns — tacked
on their ﬁnal score of
the evening when former
quarterback turned tight
end Garet Morrell hauled
in an 11-yard pass from

Alex Thomson with 4:31
remaining.
MU showed a balanced
approach as the hosts
produced 280 rushing
yards while throwing for
ﬁve touchdowns — three
of which came in the ﬁrst
half — and accumulating
340 yards through the air.
Talik Keaton added
Marshall’s second score
on special teams with
a 67-yard punt return
late in the ﬁrst quarter.
Kicker Justin Rohrwasser
was also a perfect 8-for-8
on point-after tries and
had ﬁve kickoffs result in
touchbacks.
The Herd defense produced four sacks, forced
nine punts and allowed
only 56 rushing yards
while surrendering a
total of 257 yards of total
offense in the 39-point
outcome.
It was the ﬁrst meeting
between these former
Southern Conference
rivals in 23 years, with
Marshall picking up its
15th consecutive victory
over VMI while increasing its all-time series lead
to 15-5 overall.
Willie Johnson broke
the scoreless tie with 3:09
remaining in the ﬁrst
quarter after hauling in a
29-yard pass from Isaiah
Green, making it a 7-0
contest.
Marshall followed with
a quick three-and-out
stand that forced a punt,
and Keaton answered
with a 67-yard return for
a 14-0 edge with 1:42 left
in the opening stanza.

yards in seven plays while
increasing its lead to 21
points as Artie Henry
hauled in a 51-yard pass
from Green with 13:24
remaining in the second

VMI, however, needed
only one play and 14 seconds to get on the scoreboard as Reece Udinski
found a wide-open Lara
Javeon on a 50-yard
scoring pass that cut the
deﬁcit down to 21-7 with
13:10 remaining. The
guests were also never

By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — Getting back on
a winning track.
The Point Pleasant
girls soccer team netted
a pair of ﬁrst half goals
and ultimately held on
Saturday during a 2-1
victory over visiting
Scott in a non-conference
friendly held at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field
in Mason County.
The Lady Knights
(3-1) received goals from
Kady Hughes and Morgan Miller — with each
player also assisting on
the other’s goal — en
route to a 2-0 intermission advantage.
Hughes netted her
goal off of a corner kick
from Miller for a quick
1-0 edge, then Hughes
found Miller on the right
side from about 25 yards
away from the goal. Miller delivered a boot that
found the back of the net
for a 2-0 lead.

Steelers sign CB Joe Haden
to new 3-year contract
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Joe Haden is sticking with
the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The veteran cornerback and the team have agreed
to a new three-year, $32 million contract that will
keep Haden in Pittsburgh through the 2021 season.
Haden was in the ﬁnal year of a three-year deal he
signed with Pittsburgh after being released by the
Cleveland Browns on the eve of the 2017 season.
“Letssss Goooo!!!” Haden posted on Instagram late
Sunday night. “So glad we got the deal done! On to
week 1! Locked IN!!”

crowd, and players from both sides cheered while
standing in front of their respective dugouts.
Indians star shortstop Francisco Lindor went to
the mound and hugged an emotional Carrasco, who
was activated before the game following several minor
league rehab outings.
Normally a starter, Carrasco is expected to pitch in
relief for the Indians as they chase a playoff spot down
the stretch. He worked one inning and gave up two
hits, including Travis d’Arnaud’s run-scoring single.
Charlie Morton earned his 14th win and d’Arnaud
had two RBIs as Tampa Bay swept a critical series
between postseason contenders. The Rays and
Indians are in a tight race with Oakland for the two
American League wild cards.

No. 4 Oklahoma beats
Houston, 49-31

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Carlos Carrasco
made his return to the mound from leukemia Sunday
and the Cleveland Indians pitcher was applauded by
both teams in a touching scene during Tampa Bay’s
8-2 victory that completed a three-game sweep.
The right-hander entered in the seventh inning for
his ﬁrst major league appearance since being diagnosed with a treatable form of leukemia in June. He
received a standing ovation from the Tropicana Field

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — New Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts passed for three touchdowns and ran
for three more, and the fourth-ranked Sooners rolled
past Houston 49-31 on Sunday night.
It was Hurts’ ﬁrst game for Oklahoma since he
transferred from Alabama. He put on a show as his
predecessor, 2018 Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray, watched. He posted 508 total yards, the ﬁfth-most
in school history.

Daily Sentinel

Fields shows OSU faithful what they want West Virginia
By Jim Naveau

jnaveau@limanews.com

COLUMBUS, Ohio
— Justin Fields was
surprised. Ryan Day was
surprised.
They were pleasantly
surprised, though.
Even though he had
been careful to tap the
brakes on the enthusiasm of Ohio State fans
about what the Buckeyes
acquired when Fields
transferred from Georgia
in January, Day knew the
former 5-star recruit was
capable of producing
explosive plays with his
arm and his feet at any
time.
And Fields, obviously,
knew what he could do
on a football ﬁeld.
But both were at least
a little surprised when
Fields threw for three
touchdowns and ran for
another in the ﬁrst eight
minutes of OSU’s 45-21
win over Florida Atlantic
in the Buckeyes’ season
opener at Ohio Stadium
on Saturday.
Fields started with a
51-yard touchdown run,
then threw touchdown
passes to Jeremy Ruckert, Binjimen Victor,

Chris Olave and came
back to Ruckert later for
a second score.
“The big plays will
come. I didn’t think they
would come that fast.
They were coming fast
and furious early on,”
Day said.
Fields said he was
surprised how easily
he got through Florida
Atlantic’s defense on his
51-yard run.
“When I was running
I was thinking to myself,
‘That was kind of easy.’
It deﬁnitely surprised
me,” he said.
OSU’s sophomore
quarterback, like his
coach, has some big
cleats to ﬁll.
He is following
Dwayne Haskins, who
threw for 4,831 yards
and 50 touchdowns,
both school records last
season, on his way to
becoming the Washington Redskins’ ﬁrst-round
draft choice.
Recruiting gurus went
back and forth on whether Clemson’s Trevor
Lawrence or Fields was
the top-rated quarterback coming out of high
school two years ago.
Being preceeded by

that kind of reputation
only added to the expectations some Ohio State
fans have for Fields.
Saturday was the ﬁrst
extended look at Fields
at Ohio State and the
reviews were mostly
positive.
He will, of course, be
compared to Haskins.
Those comparisons
might be unfair in one
area and they might be
unfair to any current or
future Ohio State quarterback, because Haskins
was probably the most
accurate deep ball thrower in the history of OSU
football.
With his touchdown
run, Fields showed that
as a runner he is already
ahead of Haskins. That
51 -yard gain amounts to
47 percent of Haskins’
rushing total for all of
last season.
Day evaluated Fields’
performance against
Florida Atlantic this
way: “I thought he
performed well. You
know, playing with great
energy, making good
decisions, but more
importantly, managing
the game and taking care
of the ball.

“Overall, I thought it
was well done. For a ﬁrst
start, it was well done,”
he said.
Fields said, “I think
overall I did a good
job. All aspects of my
game can get better and
improve. I’m just going
to get back in the ﬁlm
room and see what mistakes we had and just ﬁx
those and get ready for
Cincinnati (OSU’s next
opponent).”
Two other Ohio State
players making their ﬁrst
starts liked what they
saw from Fields.
“He was a great leader.
He was precise, which is
just what we’re looking
for. He did a great job,”
center Josh Myers said.
Ruckert said, “We’ve
all been saying he’s just a
baller. He gets out there
and he’s so athletic and
such a good quarterback.
His athleticism coincides
with his decision making.”
His decision to transfer has already won
applause in the world
of Ohio State football.
More of what he showed
on Saturday and more
growth will produce
even more of it.

tops James
Madison

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Austin Kendall
loved the outcome but wasn’t happy that West
Virginia’s offense struggled for much of the game
against a Championship Subdivision opponent.
The Oklahoma graduate transfer threw two
second-half touchdown passes in his debut for the
Mountaineers, who needed a comeback to hold off
James Madison 20-13 Saturday.
“We’ve got to be better as a team, especially
me,” Kendall said. “We’ve got to be better on
offense.”
Kendall couldn’t generate a ton of yards under
constant pressure but did just enough to give Neal
Brown a victory in his ﬁrst game as West Virginia’s coach while preventing the Mountaineers from
losing to an FCS opponent for the ﬁrst time.
West Virginia’s strengths entering the season
were its depth at running back and on the offensive and defensive lines. All of those units underperformed as James Madison dominated the line
of scrimmage for a good portion of the game.
The Mountaineers averaged just 1.4 yards per
rush, leaving it up to Kendall to bail them out.
He did — barely.
“Say what you want,” Brown said. “The offense
wasn’t pretty. I was really proud of this group and
how we reacted at halftime. We didn’t panic. I
thought we took control of the game, even though
we had to win it right at the end of the game.”
Kendall found Tevin Bush on a short pass that
turned into a 41-yard gain to start the third quarter, leading to Kendall’s 28-yard TD toss to Florida
State transfer George Campbell.

Erik Jones holds off Busch to win rain-delayed Southern 500
DARLINGTON, S.C.
(AP) — Erik Jones used
every bit of stamina he
had at Darlington Raceway. Few know better
than Jones the effort it
took to hold off Joe Gibbs
Racing teammate Kyle
Busch and win the raindelayed Southern 500.
“I’m mentally drained,”
he said with a smile. “I’m
physically drained.”
Jones took the lead
from Kyle Larson 85 laps
from the end and stayed
in front of Busch the rest
of the way to add a win at
iconic Darlington Raceway with his ﬁrst NASCAR Cup Series victory
at Daytona in July 2018.
Some had wondered if
the 23-year-old Jones was
the soft spot in the JGR

powerhouse as Busch,
Denny Hamlin and Martin Truex Jr. had all won
four times apiece this
season while Jones’ No.
20 was winless.
“Is there anything more
to say?” Jones asked as
the crowd cheered.
Not anymore. Jones’
victory means all four of
Joe Gibbs’ drivers has
taken the checkered ﬂag
and are locked into the
NASCAR playoffs that
start in two weeks.
To have it come at
Darlington made it even
more special for Jones.
“This is one of those
races for me that has
always held a special
place. You think of NASCAR, you think of Darlington,” he said.

Larson was second,
his third top three ﬁnish
at Darlington in the past
four years. He led 497
laps during that stretch,
including 44 in this one.
Busch, who started in
the back after swapping
out an engine after qualifying, got up to Jones’
bumper near the end. But
he brushed the wall on
the next-to-last lap and
ended third.
“We kind of lost control
that pit stop where we
came in the leader and
came out third,” Busch
said. “I thought if we
could keep in touch with
(Jones and Larson), keep
close to them, we might
be able to out-pit road
them at the end of the
race. We got by one of

them, but not the other
one. But overall, good
day.”
Busch clinched the regular-season points lead.
Kevin Harvick was
fourth and Brad Keselowski was ﬁfth.
Clint Bowyer was sixth
followed by the winner of
the opening stage, Kurt
Busch, Matt DiBenedetto,
Paul Menard and Austin
Dillon.
Playoff streak
Jimmie Johnson made
some headway on his
quest for a 16th straight
playoff appearance, but
was hindered when he
was caught up in a ﬁnal
stage crash that bumped
him back to 16th at the
Southern 500. Johnson
