(Upper Peninsula of Michigan) – A Gogebic County man was injured, treated at the hospital and then arrested Sunday night after allegedly breaking into a relative’s home – and has numerous warrants including first degree home invasion.

Break-in victim 58-year-old Guy Albin Anderson, Sr. of Ironwood, MI

In the midst of a major blizzard, police were called to a break-in in-progress at the home of victim 58-year-old Guy Albin Anderson, Sr. at 243 E. Ridge Street in Ironwood, MI.

Police were dispatched about 8:20 p.m. CT on Sunday night, April 15, 2018 to the break-in progress call.

The call was answered by Ironwood Public Safety Officers and Michigan State Police from the Wakefield Post.

“I just lost connection with him, the man was trying to kick his door in,” the dispatcher radioed officers.

Police were told Anderson, Sr. was armed with a gun while trying to keep the intruder out.

“There is an altercation – one man has a gun,” the Gogebic County 911 dispatcher told responding officers.

The officers were told “be advised the homeowner has put his gun away,” said a second dispatcher.

  Suspect 23-year-old Dylan Bradley Anderson of Ironwood, MI

The suspect was identified as 23-year-old Dylan Bradley Anderson of Ironwood – who has a long criminal history – plus is wanted downstate for home invasion and had a pair of failure to appear in court warrants issued by the Gogebic County Sheriff’s Department.

“The gun is put away for now,” the dispatcher said. “He (Dylan Anderson) did enter the home and they are attempting to stay away from each other so there is not an altercation.”

The “suspect is bleeding from an injury to the head” that happened prior to police arrival, an officer radioed from the scene requesting EMS.

The victim received a head wound and was taken by Mercy EMS ambulance – with police closely following the rig – to the Ironwood Aspirus Grand View Hospital.

Dylan Anderson has a warrant for him out of Flint, MI for first-degree home invasion, however Flint officials will not come to get him.

The two men are apparently related, although online records do not explain how.

Dylan Anderson was set to get off probation two months ago for a break-in and gun conviction.

He was paroled to Gogebic County, and at the MDOC still lists him as an absconder from probation.

The Gogebic County Sheriff’s Department keeps their jail records secret, so the exact charges against the younger Anderson are not known.

(Ironwood, MI) – An early morning fiery snowmobile crash in Iron County, WI has sent one man with serious injuries to an Ironwood, MI hospital.

The crash was reported about 2:45 a.m. CT today, Mon., Jan. 15, 2018 in Oma, Wisconsin.

Meanwhile – memorial services are planned this Wednesday for one of four people killed in the past month in Upper Peninsula snowmobile accidents. Funerals for two of other victims were held on Saturday.

Early today, a male snowmobiler was rushed by beacon Ambulance Service paramedics to the Aspirus Ironwood Hospital suffering from a head and other injuries. The crash happened on a snowmobile trail along Town Hall road near Oma, WI – just off of U.S. Highway 51.

The 23-year-old sledder lost control of his snowmobile and crashed into thick, deep brush. His snowmobile then caught fire. The name of the victim has not been released.

Paramedics radioed Aspirus doctors estimating the victim was traveling about 40 to 50 miles per hour on his machine when the crash occurred.

The victim is suffering from severe pain to the left knee, thigh and right rib. He suffered head injuries despite wearing a helmet. The victim was said to “be confused” is unsure if he was knocked out and could not tell paramedics today’s date.

There were two serious snowmobile accidents on Saturday, Jan 13, 2018  in Alger County, MI.

Two male sledders were involved in separate crashes a few hours apart on Saturday night – and both were seriously injured although the injuries did not appear to be life-threatening.

The names of those sledders have not been released.

One was flown by Valley Med Flight to U.P. Health System-Marquette  to be treated for a head injury – while the second victim – a Wisconsin man in his 40s – was transported by ambulance with multiple broken bones including a compound fracture.

The first accident happened on a trail near the Camel Riders Restaurant and Resort located just off State Highway 440 – and to the west of Hiawatha National Forest Service Forest Service Road H-13.

The second crash happened on a trail in the Hovey Lakes area – near the Buckhorn Resort/Inn.
