A Vincennes woman is dead of gunshot wounds, and a Vincennes man was charged with her murder, after a shooting earlier today.
The body was identified as 30 year-old Taylor Hendershot. According to the Knox County Coroner’s office, Hendershot was found dead in the parking lot of Cardinal Liquors on Sixth Street.
The suspect is identified as 32 year-old Dylan Smith. He was found at a home in the 800-block of Carbon Street, about a block away from where the body was discovered.
After a standoff with police, Smith surrendered around three-15 p-m. Authorities say Smith was holed up in the residence, armed with a knife. Police reported they used less lethal means to subdue Smith, and remove him from the location. Smith was taken into custody without further incident. He is being held without bond in the Knox County Jail.
