Kemp was located after deputies noticed a dog alerting to someone moving in the woods. He was taken to UK Hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. Kemp was charged with burglary, criminal mischief, fleeing or evading police, and terroristic threatening. He will be lodged at the Laurel County Detention Center upon release from UK Medical Center.
