Shooting Suspect to Appear in Court Wednesday

The suspect in a Clay County shooting that took the life of an 11-year-old girl is slated to appear in court Wednesday.

Authorities arrested 29-year-old Jacob Stanley Snyder after he shot three people early Monday morning.

Snyder faces one count of first-degree murder along with two counts of attempted first-degree murder. District Attorney Bryant Dunaway said Wednesday that Snyder’s arraignment trial is set for 9 a.m. at the Clay County Courthouse.

Harley Evans, the 11-year-old victim, was found dead at the scene while her father and his girlfriend were transported to a Nashville hospital for treatment.

The female victim and an uninjured juvenile initially received help from a bus driver who drove up to the scene during his morning route.

Authorities spent most of Monday morning tracking down Snyder before he was captured by Putnam County K-9s in Clay County.
