An Indiana State Police traffic stop Monday in Seymour led to the driver of the vehicle being arrested on a warrant for suspicion of murder out of Maple Heights, Ohio.
The investigation began when Master Trooper Randel Miller conducted a traffic stop on a 2016 Hyundai passenger vehicle for a traffic violation on I-65 northbound in northern Jackson County. The vehicle, being driven by Shannon W. Liccardo, 34, Twinsburg, Ohio, exited I-65 onto State Road 11 where it then came to a stop.
Liccardo initially provided Miller with a false name before revealing his true identity. A check on Liccardo revealed that he was wanted on a murder warrant out of Maple Heights, Ohio, in the northeastern part of that state. The warrant was issued Friday.
Miller took Shannon Liccardo into custody without incident. He was transported to the Jackson County Jail, where he is being held on the warrant, pending extradition to Ohio.
Miller was assisted by Sgt. Adam Bullock and Master Trooper Jason Hankins. ISP referred questions about the case to the Maple Heights, Ohio Police Department.
