Holt had been living in woods near his family’s property between Sherbourne Drive and Doe Run Lake.
Holt, charged with multiple felonies, is currently lodged in the Kenton County Detention Center on a $50,000 bond.
Independence and Kenton County Police officers assisted Erlanger Detectives with the arrest along with Erlanger K9 Keno.
