KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Authorities say a man has been charged with second-degree murder and other counts in the death of his girlfriend, whose body was found inside her rural Jackson County home near Kansas City, Missouri, earlier this week.
The Kansas City Star reports that 44-year-old Dana Jones is charged in the death of 54-year-old Kimberly Alcorn.
Jackson County Sheriff’s deputies were called to her home late Tuesday night for a report of a shooting, and arrived to see a car leaving the home and gave chase. Deputies say Jones was driving the car, which soon crashed. Jones, who was naked, was arrested.
Inside the home, deputies found Alcorn and a dog dead. Alcorn, who had also been stabbed, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Jones remains jailed on $250,000 cash bail.
