A Texas man has been indicted on murder charges stemming from a June traffic crash in Land Between the Lakes that killed a Fort Campbell soldier.
The current session of the Trigg County grand jury indicted 19-year-old Christopher Swykert, of Melissa, Texas, on charges of Murder, DUI – First Offense, and Tampering With Physical Evidence.
The charges are the result of a Kentucky State Police investigation following a June 20 crash. Police say Swykert was driving a Ford Mustang south on the Trace and failed to negotiate a curve. The vehicle left the road and struck a tree on the passenger side, killing 19-year-old Harry Kincaid of Houston, Texas.
Swykert’s bond was set at $1 million cash by Circuit Judge C.A. Woodall.
