Police have arrested Christopher Travis Helmic, 21, of Orma and Jacob Matthew Harrison, 22, of Chloe and charged them with misdemeanor battery. The criminal complaint says that Helmic and Harrison told police that Rush initiated the fight, after which Helmick hit Rush in defense of Harrison, striking him in the ribs and head, after which they say Rush fell back-wards and struck his head on a rock. The Grantsville Detachment of the State Police no longer releases public information locally.
