Mary Alice Reporting –

Tuscarawas Sheriff Detectives are working to put together a timeline for a man who was found dead in a car.

Sunday morning, at 4:34am, the Sheriff’s Office received a 911 call about a vehicle sitting on McKee Road, just off of Eastport Rd SE, which is behind Trinity Twin City Hospital.

A male was found deceased in the backseat portion of the car. That man is believed to be John Q Bashline II, of Powhatan Point, Ohio.

Investigators spoke to family who saw him the day before in Belmont County and he had stated that he was headed to Tuscarawas County.

The Tuscarawas Sheriff’s Office is now asking for anyone with information about Bashline or those who may have seen his vehicle to contact them at 330-339-2000 as detectives work to piece together a timeline.

No other information was available.

This vehicle is very similar to the one he was located in.
