A Bourbon woman is facing felony charges after Marshall County Sheriff's deputies and a Bourbon Police Department officer responded to a suspicious person call in the early morning hours of Tuesday, June 23rd.
At approximately 2:04 a.m., Marshall County Central Dispatch received a 911 call from a resident in the 1600 block of 9B Road reporting a suspicious female who had entered his home without permission before fleeing on foot. Responding deputies and a Bourbon officer located the suspect, identified as 19-year-old Courtney L. Shepherd of Bourbon, shortly thereafter, walking through a field on the property.
Shepherd was suspected of being under the influence of a controlled substance and was transported to Plymouth Hospital for a certified chemical test. She was subsequently transported to the Marshall County Jail, where she was booked on two charges: residential entry, as a Level 6 Felony, and operating a vehicle with a controlled substance in the body, as a Class C Misdemeanor. Shepherd was assigned a court date and held on a $1,500 cash bond.
The Marshall County Sheriff's Department was assisted in the investigation by the Bourbon Police Department.
