Suicidal man rescued from Washington state eyes dog to
detect invasive mussels on boats
ocean near Sunset Beach
Associated Press
The Daily Astorian
A suicidal man was res-
cued Thursday from the
Pacific Ocean near Sunset
Beach.
About 9:45 a.m., the man
made suicidal comments and
walked into the ocean wearing
a bag full of weights, accord-
ing to the Clatsop County
Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff’s dep-
uties made contact with the
man but were initially unable
to convince him to get out of
the water. They were, how-
ever, able to remove the bag
of weights around his body.
After resisting deputies,
the man turned and walked
back into the surf. A Coast
Guard helicopter arrived
moments later and dropped
a rescue swimmer. The man
shoved the swimmer but was
dissuaded from swimming
further into the ocean.
A sheriff’s deputy also
walked into the surf, even-
tually convincing the man to
head back to shore. The man
was then taken to a hospital.
“The amount of dedication,
courage and compassion these
deputies showed goes above
and beyond, and, as sheriff, I
am extremely proud of their
selfless courage and commit-
ment to the safety of others no
matter who they are or what
issues they may have,” Sher-
iff Tom Bergin said.
SPOKANE, Wash. — A
dog could soon be helping
check boats and prevent inva-
sive mussels from entering the
state, the Washington State
Department of Fish and Wild-
life said.
The
agency
tells
KREM-TV that the dog will
likely be stationed in Spokane
and work mostly at the State-
line boat check station look-
ing for quagga and zebra mus-
sels. The agency said it will
use grant money to purchase
the canine help sometime next
year.

Teenage driver dies after colliding
with log truck near Beaver
Associated Press
Oregon State Police say
an 18-year-old girl has died
after colliding with a log
truck on U.S. Highway 101
near Beaver.
Law enforcement offi-
cials say Mikayla Michelle
Howard was driving a
2003 Saab when it crossed
into the other lane for an
unknown reason on Friday
morning. The car then hit
a 2018 Kenworth log truck
head on.
According to a news
release on Sunday, Howard
was taken to a local hospi-
tal and later transported by
LifeFlight for further treat-
ment at Oregon Health &
Science University. She
eventually died Friday as a
result of her injuries.
The driver of the log
truck wasn’t injured.

an inch in length while zebra
mussels can be about twice that
size. The species are native to
Russia and Ukraine, and are
believed to have arrived in the
U.S. in the 1980s aboard ships
that released ballast water into
the Great Lakes.
They attach to boats and
trailers and travel long dis-
tances, and their micro-
scopic larvae can survive in
water inside a boat or even an
angler’s wading boots. Also,
the mussels can sense toxins
and close their shells.
Officials said a dog could
even detect the mussels if they
make it into a local lake.
“It’s huge,” Anderson said.
“It’s going to be a great asset
to the program.”

10 minutes,” said Eric Ander-
son of the Department of Fish
and Wildlife. “When you have
a dog, it’s able to sniff the out-
side of the boat. That inspec-
tion could go down to maybe a
minute or two minutes.”
Quagga and zebra mus-
sels siphon in water to pluck
out microscopic organisms
that can throw food chains
out of balance, and their sheer
numbers in attaching to sur-
faces can clog pipes at reser-
voirs and damage boat motors.
Giant water bodies turning
aquamarine blue is a sign that
the base of the food chain is
being depleted, risking starva-
tion for other species, includ-
ing sport fish.
