The Barren County Sheriff’s Department continues their search for two assailants who robbed a member of the Amish community.

At approximately midnight on May 9, near the intersection of Oil Well Road and Tobacco Road, Henry Schrock, 23, was traveling with his wife and two children in a buggy when two assailants came from the fence line and physically threatened them, according to authorities.

The two unknown suspects took Schrock’s wallet, which contained cash and various cards, including his Social Security card.

No weapons were used in the robbery, authorities said.

One of the subjects was described as a larger man who was wearing a bandanna that covered his face.

Anyone with information is urged to call the sheriff’s office at (270) 651-2771 or the hotline at (270) 646-8771.

Bull escapes, damages cars

A bull being cared for at Glasgow’s Animal Clinic on West Main Street got loose and did minor damage to two vehicles on Thursday.

The animal went on its mini-rampage around 11:15 a.m., according to Capt. Kent Keen, public information officer with the Glasgow Police Department.

Employees with the Animal Clinic were able to subdue the bull with tranquilizers and get it back inside. No injuries were reported.
