CHARLES COUNTY POST Friday, august 8, 2003 SC2 STLtoday.com Three "prominent members" of community will take a dive for charity in Celebrity dunk Tank Chase Couple from Ohio ore arrested here Continued from page 1 by apartment, where she knocked on a resident's door to hide. The resident let the woman in and then called the police. The suspects provided phony names, Kenton said, but they were later identified as Thomas N.

Williams and Toni R. Deizel, both of Toledo, Ohio. Williams, 30, who drove the vehicle, was charged with first-degree tampering and fleeing the scene. Deizel, 17, was charged with second-degree tampering. Williams is also wanted for parole violation in Florida.

Kenton said police had tracked the pair's travel to Cleveland, where the couple are believed to have stolen the van from a yard sale. They then traveled to Indiana, where they are linked to a house burglary in which cash and a gun were taken. They are accused of stealing the license plates in Illinois before coming to Missouri. The officer ran a check on the van's Illinois license plates when he first tried to pull the couple over, Kenton said, but the van did not appear to be stolen. The car chase never exceeded 45 mph, he said.

The officer was pulling them over as part of Operation Safe Summer, a 120-day traffic initiative police are using to help cut down on traffic accidents.

Or how would you like to see Tim Swope fall helplessly into the water? We're sure some of their "friends" will take part Saturday morning in the Celebrity Dunk segment of this year's Turtle Race at Wapelhorst Park, 1875 Muegge Road, in St. Charles.

She said people would like to dunk us "because of the controversial issues" that we are exposed to on a daily basis. Hmm. Ortwerth and Swope create the controversy, and I just stir the pot.

He also complained that Florissant was now barring the company from bidding on contracts. He said he understood that came from Mayor Robert Lowery. "We've done a tremendous amount of roadwork in the city of Florissant," Marschuetz said. "I would like to think we run a pretty gosh-dang respectable family business.

Why weren't we contacted to sit down with the city and asked, 'What do you know about He didn't name the supervisor. Meantime, the Florissant issue was not brought up when the St. Charles City Council recently approved the Marschuetz company to do the reconstruction of Randolph Street in St. Charles.

Dennis Marschuetz, president of Marschuetz Construction said last week that his firm would take some kind of disciplinary action possibly a suspension against a supervisor who arranged for the pouring of a driveway for a Florissant inspector. Marschuetz said that the free driveway was against company policy and that corporate officials had no knowledge of it until a Florissant police official commented on it in a St.

Charles newspaper earlier this month. "The company wasn't aware of it," Marschuetz said. "We have policies against those types of things." He said the company on occasion provides "ball tickets" or a "dinner outing" for a city employee but nothing as expensive as a driveway. "We don't do construction work for free," he said. "What was done by our supervisor was wrong.

We're very embarrassed by this. We're going to take corrective measures." Marschuetz said he didn't know whether the company supervisor had been pressured by the city inspector to provide the driveway or whether the supervisor had initiated the freebie.

Ortwerth, county executive, will be in the Dunk Tank from 9:30 to 10 a.m. Swope, county sheriff, will be in the tank from 9 until 9:30 a.m. Oh yes, I almost forgot, Char-leytown himself will be in the Dunk Tank from 8:30 to 9 a.m. That'll be a good time for everyone to closely inspect those turtles and try to pick the winner. After Ortwerth's stint in the tank, the turtle race will go off at 10 a.m.

The winning turtle will be announced at 10:15 a.m. Janet Woodbum, president and chief executive officer of Bridgeway, said Ortwerth, Swope and Charleytown had been chosen for the Celebrity Dunk as "prominent members of the placed a call to the company's officer in Fenton. "Do you have sharks or piranha in these tanks?" I asked. "I don't think so," said a Dunk Tank expert with Thrill Seeker. "Would you like us to put some sharks in the tank? We try to accommodate." "No, that's all right," I said.

I'm wondering if Swope will try to get Ortwerth dunked and vice versa, but I'm thinking both of them will come early to see Charleytown go under. I hope my good friends at area fire departments will be on hand just in case I need to be rescued. Make your plans now, bob-blehead fans, to be at T.R.
