The Russell County Grand Jury met Tuesday in special session to review the case of a Russell Springs man that was indicted Tuesday on murder and other charges stemming from a wreck that occurred on Jan. 2 in which a Russell Springs woman died.
According to the indictment released Tuesday evening by Circuit Clerk Tony Kerr, 23-year-old Alex Lopez Entzin was indicted by a Russell County grand jury on charges of murder, driving under the influence, speeding 14 mph or more over the limit, no operator’s license, reckless driving, and failure to give an oncoming vehicle half of the roadway.
Entzin was arrested in February on the charges after the two-vehicle wreck that occurred in January on North Highway 127 that claimed the life of 75-year-old Wanda Wethington. Entzin is being held on a $500,000 cash bond and is scheduled for arraignment on May 23 at 10 a.m. in Russell Circuit Court.
