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.
