Troopers in Kentucky need your help to find the person they say held up a Pike County market earlier this week. It happened at the Zebulon Velocity Market Wednesday.
Troopers said a man walked into the market, showed a weapon, demanded cash, then took off with the money. The suspect is described as about 6 feet, two inches tall and weighing between 280 and 300 pounds. He was last seen wearing jeans, a black sweatshirt, camouflage gloves and a camouflage mask over his face.
Troopers say he took off in a small red pickup truck. If you have any information, call the Kentucky State Police at (606) 433-7711 or 1-800-222-5555.
