Sutton resigns as Tide girls' coach
Shocked but not surprised, but COLUMBIA
TALK learned this afternoon that Gary Sutton has resigned his
position as girls' basketball coach at Columbia High School.
In a 90-minute telephone conversation,
looking back fondly on his years at Columbia, Sutton confirmed his
resignation saying “there were a number of reasons, including
pending knee replacement surgery later this summer.”
And coaching at Columbia is his last
stop on the coaching ladder after 36 years. “I have no plans to
coach anywhere else,” Sutton said.
This was Sutton's second go round at
Columbia. He served as boys' coach for five years, which culminated
in an improbable state title in 1987.
“Columbia has been and always will be
a special place for me,” Sutton said.
He said he spoke to a couple of players
yesterday and today about his decision and will meet with his now
former coaching staff tonight.
“I enjoyed coaching and really
thought a lot about this decision,” Sutton said.
In his three years as girls' coach,
Sutton went 8-55 and the team improved each year.
“Both times I left Columbia, I left
the program in much better shape than when I came here,” he said/.
Whoever gets the position will have at
least four starters and other key reserves returning.

Police charge three after assault investigation
On June 10, 2012 at approximately
0318 hours, Officers from the Columbia Borough Police
Department were dispatched to the 400 block of Locust Street
for an assault. Officers arrived and located a 24 year old
Columbia woman who had serious injuries resulting from the
assault. Police learned through their investigation that Eric
J. Dommel (28) of Lancaster had broken into her apartment
through a window and assaulted her while she was sleeping.
Dommel threatened to "kill" the victim. The victim
was able to escape and run out of the apartment and down Locust
Street with Dommel chasing after her. A bystander protected the
victim and called Police to the scene. The victim was
transported to an area hospital. Eric J. Dommel fled the scene
after stealing the victim's cellular phone. A felony warrant
was obtained for Dommel. An extensive search was conducted with
Officers from the Columbia Borough Police, West Hempfield
Township Police, East Hempfield Township Police to include
their K9 Unit, and Susquehanna Regional Police. Officers
searched several local residences after receiving information
regarding his location. While investigating a tip in the 200
Blk of S. 4th Street a small marihuana growing operation was
uncovered and two people were taken into custody. A 24 year old
Columbia man that was taken into custody will be charged with a
Violation of the Controlled Substance Act for possession and
manufacturing a controlled substance. Michael J. Lindsey, a 30
year old Manheim resident was arrested for an outstanding Bench
Warrant through the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office. Police
continued to track Dommel through the victim's cell phone and
were able to apprehend him in the 300 blk of Linden Street in
Columbia.
He was transported to the Lancaster City Police for central arraignment on charges of Burglary, Terroristic Threats and Simple Assault.
