On September 9, 20025, at 8:21 p.m. Gibson County Central Dispatch received a report of a male subject walking in the middle of State Road 65 and shaking his fists at passing cars near County Road 900 South.  Law enforcement arrived on scene and identified the male as 23-year-old Chyle Linxwiler of Owensville.  Law Enforcement Officers offered Mr. Linxwiler a ride to Evansville, and he declined.  At that point he was instructed to walk on the side of the roadway. 
 
About 20 minutes later Deputy Wyatt Hunt drove through the area and observed Mr. Linxwiler again walking in the middle of the roadway.  At that point Deputy Hunt attempted to speak with Mr. Linxwiler when he began to flee the area.  After a brief chase and physical altercation Mr. Linxwiler was taken into custody.  After a brief investigation Mr. Linxwiler was transported to the Gibson County Detention Center where he was charged with Public Intoxication, Resisting Law Enforcement Fleeing, and Resisting Law Enforcement Fighting.
 
Deputy Hunt was assisted in his investigation by Sgt Loren Barchett and Deputy Shawn Holmes.  Also assisting in the investigation were Owensville Town Marshal Rodger Leister and Haubstadt Town Marshal Jason Wright.
