A Rochester man was one of two arrested in Centennial Park during the Marshall County Blueberry Festival after police officers responded to a large fight with weapons.
Around 7 p.m. on Saturday, Plymouth Police Marshall County deputies quickly responded and found a male, later identified as Caleb Miller, 20, of Rochester, who was considered a possible armed suspect. When officers approached Miller, a fight broke out before he was quickly taken into custody.
Once Miller was secured in a police car, officers learned that a second suspect, later identified as Kyle Tidwell, 20, of Winamac, was in custody near a different entrance to the festival.
Plymouth officers found that Tidwell had two loaded handguns on him and was fleeing the scene. Tidwell was booked into the Marshall County Jail while awaiting criminal charges for misdemeanor resisting law enforcement, disorderly conduct, and criminal trespassing.
Miller was held in the Marshall County Jail while facing criminal charges for felony battery on a law enforcement officer, misdemeanor resisting law enforcement, and disorderly conduct.
