Three Yazoo County men are accused of forcing their way into a man’s home while he was asleep on the couch, dragging him outside and assaulting him.
Vernon Hearst, 52, of 1607 Bell Road, Leonard Hearst Sr., 55, of 1601 Bell Road, and Leonard Hearst Jr., 32, of 1609 Bell Road, are each facing felony charges of kidnapping and breaking and entering.
“They allegedly kicked in the door, dragged him out of the house and beat him,” said Deputy Jack Willingham. “The whole thing was supposedly about some kind of civil dispute.”
