Grand Jury indicts man accused of shooting his ex-girlfriend

| August 13, 2025

Carl Reynolds (Tuscarawas County Sheriff's Office)

NEW PHILADELPHIA – The Tuscarawas County Grand Jury has indicted a Uhrichsville man for attempted aggravated murder and other charges a month after authorities say he stalked and shot his ex-girlfriend.

Carl Reynolds, 44, has been in the Tuscarawas County Jail on a $1 million bond since July 13. That’s when Tuscarawas County Sheriff Orvis Campbell says he ambushed his ex-girlfriend and unloaded several shots from a long gun into the vehicle she was driving before she was able to drive away. The woman arrived at the Uhrichsville Police station with a bloody head injury. At the time, Campbell said a bullet or bullet fragment had struck the woman, and it wasn’t clear how Reynolds tracked down his ex-girlfriend.

The indictment against Reynolds has eight felony counts, including two counts of attempted aggravated murder with firearm specifications, both first-degree felonies. Other counts include felonious assault, menacing by stalking, illegal use of a tracking device or application, violating a protection order, retaliation and disrupting public service.

Reynolds’s attorney has filed a not guilty plea. No future court dates are listed.
