RENO, Nev. (AP) — A 41-year-old man with a violent criminal record has been charged with first-degree kidnapping in the case of an 18-year-old Nevada woman who has been missing for over two weeks. A judge in northern Nevada’s rural Lyon County left Troy Driver’s bail unchanged during a brief court hearing Wednesday. It was set at $750,000 after his Friday arrest. Driver has been held at the Lyon County Jail in Yerington as a suspect in what authorities have characterized as the kidnapping of Naomi Christine Irion. She was last seen March 12 in her car in a Walgreen’s parking lot in Fernley about 30 miles east of Reno.
