Man, 1 of 5 charged in deadly house blast, reaches plea deal
INDIANAPOLIS — A man who was one of five people charged in a deadly Indianapolis house explosion reached a plea deal Wednesday with prosecutors as jury selection was underway in his trial on a conspiracy charge.
About two dozen jurors had been screened for Glenn Hults’ trial on a conspiracy to commit arson charge when his plea agreement was filed in Marion Superior Court, said his attorney, Ralph Staples.
Hults, 50, has agreed to plead guilty to one count of assisting a criminal in the November 2012 explosion that killed two people and devastated a neighborhood on Indianapolis’ south side.
