FRANKFORT, Ky. (WTVQ) — The man accused of killing Scott County deputy Caleb Conley was indicted by a grand jury in Scott County Thursday, Attorney General Daniel Cameron said.
Steven Sheangshang was indicted on murder of a police officer, being a convicted felon in possession of a gun, robbery, two counts of wanton endangerment and being a persistent felony offender.
The case was investigated by Kentucky State Police, the Office of Special Prosecutions and the assistant attorney general on behalf of the Commonwealth.
