283

The Ramey’s Qwik Stop convenience store on Highway 15 was the target of a response by the Perry County Sheriff’s Department on Tuesday following an allegation of an ATM robbery.

According to the authorities, before breaking in and removing the ATM with a truck, the culprit spray-painted the security cameras.

In Vicco, at the Ramey’s gas station, someone had backed up and busted the door in. Sheriff Joe Engle of Perry County said, “They wrapped a rope around the ATM, removed it, stole it, and fled the area.

Officials are hopeful that fresh evidence may result in an arrest as the investigation moves forward.

โ€We do have some leads, weโ€™ve not arrested at this time. Weโ€™ve not developed probable cause yet to make an arrest. We do have some leads weโ€™re checking out in Letcher County that weโ€™re following up on. Weโ€™ve collected some evidence, weโ€™ll be sending in samples into the lab to try and match up with the subject. Hopefully, some future charges are pending on them.โ€ added Engle.
