Pulaski Sheriff Bobby Jones reports the arrests of three men in connection with a burglary at a local business following an early-morning business alarm activation on November 3, 2026.
At approximately 2:25 a.m., deputies responded to Valley Farm Equipment after an alarm was activated involving multiple motion detectors. Upon arrival, Deputy Daniel Drury observed an individual fleeing from the business. Despite verbal commands to stop, the individual continued to flee on foot.
Additional responding units and the Pulaski County Special Response Team assisted in searching the surrounding area. A Special Response Team drone was deployed to assist with locating the fleeing suspect, who was subsequently located near the business attempting to conceal himself from law enforcement.
The individual was identified as Jordan Asberry, 30, of Walton, Kentucky. Asberry was arrested and charged with Fleeing or Evading Police in the Third Degree, Burglary in the First Degree, Possession of a Controlled Substance in the First Degree – Methamphetamine, and Theft by Unlawful Taking – Firearm.
During the initial investigation, it was determined that two other men were allegedly involved in the burglary: Cody Hartness, 27, of McKinney and William Willhoff, 33, of McKinney. Hartness and Willhoff were arrested without incident in Lincoln County during the later morning of November 3. Both Hartness and Willhoff were each charged with Burglary in the First Degree, Theft by Unlawful Taking – Firearm, and Criminal Mischief in the First Degree. Asberry is currently being held without bond, and Hartness and Willhoff are both being held on $75,000 cash bonds, all in the Pulaski County Detention Center. Hartness was also served with an unrelated warrant from Lincoln County for Receiving Stolen Property.
According to the investigation, the three suspects allegedly broke the front glass door of Valley Farm Equipment and entered the business with the intention of stealing merchandise. Items reported stolen included chainsaws, firearms, and possibly other items. Investigators also determined that the suspects were in possession of firearms as they fled the business.
