Grand jury declines to indict Indiana man for deadly KSU campus shooting

KSU

A grand jury has declined to indict Jacob Lee Bard after he allegedly shot and killed a Kentucky State University student and injured another on campus.

Bard's attorney Jonathan Danks says the panel found that Bard acted in self-defense after reviewing all evidence presented in the case.

The grand jury’s decision means no criminal charges will move forward against Bard. Bard posted a $100,000 bond, 10% of his initial $1 million, and was released from jail Tuesday morning.
