MOUNT VERNON, Ohio (AP) — The latest on the slaying of a central Ohio policeman (all times local): 12:30 p.m. A man whose ex-girlfriend told police he left her house "looking to kill a cop" has been indicted in the fatal shooting of an Ohio officer. The Knox County prosecutor said Monday that 32-year-old Herschel Ray Jones III has been indicted on 10 charges, including aggravated murder with a death specification. That means prosecutors will seek the death penalty if he's convicted. Jones has been jailed, and it's not clear if he has an attorney. The body of 34-year-old Danville Officer Thomas Cottrell was found behind the village's municipal building late on Jan. 17, shortly after Jones' ex-girlfriend called and warned police. She said Jones had threatened her and was armed. The village is about 50 miles northeast of Columbus. ___ 3 a.m. Prosecutors say they plan to discuss developments in the case of an Ohio village police officer gunned down earlier this month. The Knox County Prosecutor's Office is planning a news conference Monday in Mount Vernon to talk about the shooting. The body of 34-year-old Danville Officer Thomas Cottrell was found behind the village municipal building late on Jan. 17. He'd been shot in the head. Thirty-two-year-old Herschel Ray Jones III is expected to be charged. About 10 minutes before Cottrell's body was discovered, Jones' ex-girlfriend called police to say Jones was armed and left her house "looking to kill a cop."
