Sheriff: man may’ve been doing donuts on Lake Delhi before fatal accident

January 10, 2018 By Radio Iowa Contributor

Delaware County Sheriff John LeClere has released new information on the death of a man whose SUV went through the ice on Lake Delhi.

LeClere says that tire marks indicate that 23-year-old Alex Salow of Delhi may have been doing donuts with his SUV before plunging through the ice on the north end of Lake Delhi Sunday. A witness also spotted a vehicle doing donuts on the ice Sunday night.

When rescue crews arrived on the scene Monday they located the SUV submerged in about 8 feet of water. Salow’s body was found after a camera was used to look inside. An autopsy has been ordered on Salow’s body.
