Entry Description
Crawford County – Friday morning, January 11, at approximately 2:30 a.m., Indiana State Police initiated an investigation after a Crawford County Deputy was found shot inside his home near English.
Crawford County Deputy Jesse Belcher, 26, of English, finished his shift Thursday night at 10:00 p.m. and was at home. Sometime between 1:30 and 2:00 this morning, Belcher called another Crawford County Deputy and after talking for a few minutes he hung up. The other deputy became concerned for Belcher’s welfare and attempted to call him back. After Belcher failed to answer his phone, two deputies responded to his house located at 2768 Benham Mill Road near English. Once deputies arrived they found Belcher had shot himself in the head with a handgun. He was taken to the University of Louisville Hospital where he is currently being treated for his injury.
