Teen Arrested In Death Of Blendon Township Woman

Franklin County prosecutors hope to try a 16-year-old boy as an adult for the murder of a jogger over the weekend. Jordan Stewart was arrested yesterday at his group home in Blendon Township, less than 24 hours after he allegedly jumped out of the woods at Ridgewood Park and killed 55-year-old Jane Juergens. Prosecutors say Stewart was placed in a group home after repeated run-ins with police. A probable cause hearing is scheduled for next Tuesday.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
