LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) – Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a robbery suspect.
Around 3:45 a.m. Saturday, March 24, officers were dispatched to the Dairy Mart located at 155 East Reynolds Road in Lexington for a robbery. The store employee reported that an unknown white male wearing a mask entered the business and brandished a firearm, demanding money from the register. The employee complied with the suspect’s demands, and the man fled the store.
The suspect is described as a white man in his 20s, approximately 6 feet 3 inches tall, 200 pounds, wearing a red and black hooded jacket. The description and clothing matches a suspect in a robbery case out of Georgetown that occurred later that same day.
