RENO, Nev. (AP) — Authorities have accused a rural Nevada man of kidnapping and killing an 18-year-old woman. Naomi Irion’s body was found this week in a remote grave in northern Nevada’s high desert. Troy Driver of Fernley was booked Friday of charges of murder with use of a deadly weapon, robbery, burglary and destruction of evidence. He’s been held on $750,000 bail at the Lyon County Jail since March 25 after his arrest on a kidnapping charge. The Fernley woman had been missing since March 12. An autopsy on Wednesday confirmed the human remains found in the grave were hers.
