CATLETTSBURG A Boyd County grand jury has issued an indictment in the case of a man accused of swindling a car from a friend, then spray-painting it to conceal it.
In move reminiscent of when Ben Stiller painted the tail of a stray cat to pass it off as Robert DeNiro s beloved, commode-flushing, feline friend Jinxy in the 2000 classic âMeet the Parents,â 22-year-old Devin Castle is accused of spray-painting a gray-silver Hyundai Elantra red to hide it after he borrowed it from a friend and kept it, according to Boyd County Sheriff Bobby Jack Woods.
When a deputy arrived at the home to investigate the alleged theft, he found Castle â who already had a couple warrants for some misdemeanors â had the key in his pocket, according to court records.
CATLETTSBURG A Louisa woman is in custody after crashing her car into a Boyd County Sheriff s deputy cruiser, running away, and then offering to turn a trick for a deputy to get out of jail, according to court documents.
In the early morning hours of Sunday, court records show a deputy spotted a black 2003 Dodge Dakota pull out of a trailer court on Shopes Creek Road with improper lights and swerving all over the road.
The deputy hit the lights after the pickup truck busted a hard left onto U.S. 60, before hanging a right onto Booth Quillen Road, according to the court records.
The Ashland-Boyd County Health Department announced six additional cases of COVID-19 on Friday, including two connected to the Boyd County Detention Center.
