Two arrested in robbery after asking police for directions
The Courier-Journal • October 10, 2008
Less than two hours after they allegedly robbed a Circle K gas station, two men were arrested in the case — when they asked a Louisville Metro Police officer for directions.
Lavarr A. Milton, 21, and Guy O. Walker, 18, have been charged with robbing the Jeffersontown-area gas station and three others in the Louisville area, according to police.
Milton and Walker are accused of robbing the Circle K in the 9600 block of Taylorsville Road about 1 a.m. today, said Jeffersontown police Detective Bill Green.
About 2:45 a.m., the two were in the 7300 block of Egypt Lane in Okolona when they asked a Louisville Metro Police officer for directions to Blue Lick Road, said police spokeswoman Alicia Smiley.
“The officer noticed some evidence in the vehicle that led him to believe that a robbery had occurred” and he arrested Milton and Walker, Smiley said.
Smiley said Milton and Walker were wanted in connection with robberies that occurred at a Speedy Mart, 1711 W. Broadway, on July 8 and July 16, and another at Boone’s Chevron, 521 N. 22nd St., on Aug. 8.
Milton and Walker are being held at Metro Corrections.
Green said Jeffersontown police are working with Louisville Metro Police in the investigation.
