{Vernoa, Kentucky}...The Boone County Sheriff's Office says 92 year old Earl Jones of Vernoa told investigators he heard a noise in the basement of his home at 2:10 A.M. Monday and picked up a .22 caliber rifle. An intruder walked up the stairs to the first floor, where Jones shot him then called his neighbor, who called 911. When deputies arrived, they found the outside basement door opened with no one but Jones in the house. Later, Kenton County Police responded to a call on Courtney Road of a man who had been shot. At that scene, police found 24 year old Lloyd Adam Maxwell of Richmond deceased, along two other men, in a 2001 Chevrolet Impala. Ryan Dalton, 22, and Donnie Inabnit, 20, both of Dry Ridge, are charged with second-degree burglary complicity and tampering with physical evidence. Police say Dalton and Inabnit admitted their involvement in the burglary at Jones’ Violet Road home.
