Congressional candidate found alive after car accident (Gary Dobbs)

This is one weird story...read down to the part about the woman with a gun in the woods.


Dover – Democratic 1st District U.S. House candidate Gary B. Dodds of Rye was discovered alive late last night after being missing for more than 24 hours after his Lincoln Continental crashed on the Spaulding Turnpike in Dover.

Dodds was found by a rescue dog about a mile to a mile and a half from the Spaulding Turnpike accident site, after authorities combed the area throughout the day and into the night.

He went missing after his car crashed about 8:16 p.m. Wednesday between Exit 7 and the Dover toll plaza as he traveled south on the Spaulding Turnpike.

Rescuers said Dodds had apparently crossed the Bellamy River and was discovered about 100 to 150 yards behind a home on McKenna Street not far from the Garrison Elementary School. He had wrapped himself in leaves to keep warm, and was laying on the ground when the dog, Eli, caught his scent.
