Sheriff cites no link between school intruder and Amy Mihaljevic case
Ashland County Sheriff Etzwiler says the man who offered a boy $22 to join a track team at Black River Intermediate School last Tuesday is not the killer of 10 year old Amy Mihaljevic. A composite of the intruder will be released today. The suspect is described as 32 to 38, six foot two, with straight black hair and a small scar above the right eye. He drove a rusted dark brown two door car from the late 1970s or early 1980s. The investigation remains separate from Amy’s murder case.
