Town of Blenheim
Schoharie County
Search: On Dec. 15 at 1:02 a.m., the Schoharie County Sheriff’s Office requested Forest Ranger assistance with the search for a potentially despondent subject in Blenheim State Forest. Forest Rangers joined the overnight search efforts. Working with Sheriff’s Deputies, Rangers followed tracks in the snow but lost the tracks due to intermittent snow coverage. At 8:11 a.m., with eight Rangers on the search, Ranger Fox located new tracks near an old logging road and located the 29-year-old subject. Ranger Fox helped the individual out to a waiting ambulance; the subject was treated for frostbite.
Several fire departments from Schoharie and Delaware counties were dispatched to the Blenheim Fire Department in preparation for the search when the subject was located by forest rangers. The first group of volunteers were headed to begin the search when the subject was located by the forest rangers.
