Autumn Neblett September Neblett
Court proceedings were continued Wednesday morning for three of the four suspects charged in connection with incidents that led to the shooting of Hopkinsville Police Officer Jeremy Davidson in February.
Anthony Johnson, Autumn Neblett and September Neblett had been scheduled for a pre-trial conference, but Commonwealth’s Attorney Rick Boling said their hearing was being continued until January 15.
Boling says the alleged shooter, Keith Kuzyk, could soon have his case resolved in federal court and he is waiting to see what happens there before proceeding with the Nebletts and Johnson as they could be called as witnesses in the federal case.
The Neblett sisters are charged locally with complicity to robbery and receiving stolen property and Johnson with fleeing or evading police and receiving stolen property.
Those charges are connected to the alleged carjacking at Walmart that led to two pursuits. Officer Davidson was shot in the arm and head at the end of one of those pursuits on North Drive near Sanderson Drive and was treated and released from Skyline Medical Center.
Johnson and Kuzyk are federally indicted on gun and carjacking charges.
Kuzyk is indicted locally for attempted murder of a police officer, first-degree assault, fleeing or evading police, wanton endangerment, auto theft, receiving stolen property and for being a persistent felony offender.
