Tara Smith, of Warsaw, said she and her family were returning home from a trip to Indiana Beach when they made a stop at the park. After playing with the four children in her group, Smith said she made a head count of the children and noticed that Evan Ousley, one of her twins, was still in the water and a youngster was under water in front of him, with only his arms showing. Evan grabbed the child under his arms and walked backward, dragging the coughing and sputtering toddler from the water. 25 Years Ago While some 7-year-olds are still riding their bicycles with the training wheels intact for security, as well as balance, one area boy has long ago given up his pedaling in search of more challenging two-wheelers.
