Burglary in El Dorado Springs
Stone explained the house at this location was destroyed by fire approximately a week prior, however his barn, which he uses as his shop, was left undamaged.
He was at the property at approximately 7:30 p.m. and everything was as it should be. When he returned at approximately 11:30 p.m. he discovered the side door to the barn open and several items missing.
Stone reported he had five used car batteries outside the building along the north wall that were now gone. Additionally, from inside the building he was missing a Bosch Nail gun and a Dewalt Skill saw. Stone believed other items to be missing, but wasn’t able to give a complete amount at the time. He also stated an air compressor and plastic bucket with miscellaneous tools had been moved from the back of the shop to in front of the door.
Stone explained both the large sliding door and the side door were locked when he left. When he returned, the side door was open and unlocked. He further explained the side door was damaged prior to this incident and could be pulled away from the door frame to allow someone to enter the building.
A suspect was named. Total value of missing items is $445.
Rollover accident west of Drexel
More information will be published as it becomes available.
From Henry County Prosecutor Richard Shields
One person was seriously injured and was transported to a hospital in Kansas City for treatment of a severe head injury. He was released several days later.
This office returned the referral to the Clinton Police a few days later, asking them to clarify certain information in the report which the police department did. This office then received further information about other possible witnesses and notified the police department about them.
Several individuals were interviewed over the course of the investigation and it became clear to this office that there were vastly different versions of the events that took place that night, including who the initial aggressor was, and what, if any, justification to inflict injury was held by the person who caused the serious injury to the person who was hospitalized. Consequently, this office is not in a present position to file any charges against anyone. This is because this office must have confidence that it can prove in court that a crime was committed by a particular person. This office relies solely on official investigations performed by law enforcement agencies. It cannot and will not be guided by information posted on social media.
This office has not used the names of the persons involved because no one was charged. The persons involved and/or those following this matter know who they are. If significant further information materializes, this decision could be reviewed, however, for the time being, no charges are forthcoming.
