Remove him from the squad by replacing him with another soldier. As a civilian, he'll probably run away.

Send out some dwarves armed with hammers and spears.

I think a civilian alert would work -- make a tiny (like, 5x5) burrow somewhere safe and set a civilian alert for it. If any of your squads or dwarves are active military, deactivate them. Usually when I do that a dwarf will break off from wild animal combat.

I am trying to make chickens lay bees as eggs. So far it only produces a single "Tame Small Creature" when a hen lays bees.
Honestly at the time, I didn't see what could go wrong with crowding 80 military Dwarves into a small room with a necromancer for the purpose of making bacon.

Fact: the edit button is your friend

You probably don't have a weapon stockpile so it'll sit there until someone needs it or it gets stolen. Also a perfect yellow zircon is a gemstone.

I just had a "lord consort" visit and decide to stay. Preparing for Trojan war reenactment.
Protip: statues cannot be made out of wood unless they're artifacts. If you see what appears to be a wooden statue outside your fort and it's not an artifact, destroy it immediately.

Same dwarf is a squad leader and chief medic? What could possibly go wrong?
