Teenager Found Dead In Louisville
KENTUCKY...
A teenager found dead in Louisville was the grandson of a man charged with shooting and killing a teenager who allegedly threw rocks at his home in October.
Louisville police say 19-year-old Thomas Ashley was found dead at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday in an alley near his home. His grandfather, 62-year-old Archie Ashley, is charged with killing 15-year-old Andrew Elliott, who was allegedly throwing rocks outside the older man's home on Oct. 9.
Lt. Barry Wilkerson, head of the Louisville Metro Police homicide unit, told The Courier-Journal that investigators were looking into whether Thomas Ashley's death is related to the charges against his grandfather, who remains in jail.
Thomas Ashley's father, Archie Ashley III, said that he doesn't believe the two slayings are connected.
