CHILLICOTHE - The Ross County Sheriff s Office has released the names of two inmates who died after medical incidents at the Ross County Jail earlier this month.
On Friday, April 9, William Van Barr Jr. was in a holding cell in preparation for booking into the jail. Deputies discovered that he was suffering from some type of medical emergency in the cell, according to Major Tom White, Jail Administrator for the Ross County Sheriff s Office.
At that point, Van Barr was still breathing shallowly. CPR was administered. As a precaution, they went ahead and administered Narcan, because the good that comes from Narcan far outweighs anything negative, but there was no indication that it was or was not any type of overdose, said White.
