West Virginia man arraigned in fatal shooting of state trooper

2023-06-05

[NYPOST] A suspect in the fatal shooting of a West Virginia state police officer was arraigned Saturday on a first-degree murder charge.Timothy Kennedy, 29, was arraigned by video in Mingo County Magistrate Court. Kennedy of the Mingo County community of Beech Creek, near Matewan, was being held without bond in the Southwestern Regional Jail.

Jail records didn’t indicate whether Kennedy had an attorney who could comment on the charge.

Dozens of coppers had searched for Kennedy for hours. He was arrested in a stolen vehicle Friday night at a law enforcement checkpoint, news outlets reported.

In the photo at the link it looks like he fell down the stairs a few times...

Earlier Friday, Sgt. Cory Maynard and two troopers had responded to a complaint of a shooting at a home and were fired at when they arrived, state police said in a statement. Maynard was shot and taken to a hospital in Logan.
