Robber's Disguise Not Effective
KENTUCKY...
A grand jury in Richmond has indicted a man in two robberies in which the suspect dressed as a woman. Indictments from the Madison County grand jury Wednesday charge 40-year-old Troy Noel Lear of Brodhead with two counts of first-degree robbery for holdups at a Berea bank and a hotel in Richmond. Investigators told The Richmond Register that the robber in the bank heist showed a gun and an electronic stun device was the threat in the hotel robbery. While the robber dressed as a female, police said witnesses knew he was a man. Lear is held in the Madison County Detention Facility.
