Ashland Police looking for suspect in bank robbery
ASHLAND Ashland Police Department confirmed a robbery took place at the PNC Bank on Carter Avenue via Facebook post — nearly a week after the alleged incident.
The social media post sought out assistance from the public in identifying a man who allegedly demanded money from the service counter around 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 12, before 'the suspect fled on foot.'
The department and detectives utilized security footage for the community to possibly identify a white male described only as wearing 'blue jeans, a gray logo 'Old Navy' hooded jacket, a face covering and sunglasses.'
It is unclear from the department's release whether the man successfully made it away with a substantial amount of money, or further descriptions of the man, such as an estimated height of the suspect.
Community members are instructed not to approach the suspect, 'as he is considered armed and dangerous.'
If the man were to be identified, Facebook users are instructed to call 911, email silentwitness@ashlandky.gov or call APD at (606) 385-3127.

Why are flags at half-staff in NY today? Here's what to know
Gov. Kathy Hochul announced flags on all state government buildings will be flown at half-staff Friday, June 6 and Saturday, June 7 in honor of a state highway worker who died last week. New York State Department of Transportation Highway Maintenance Supervisor Robert Bornt died May 30 after suffering catastrophic injuries related to a work zone intrusion in Pittstown, located just northeast of Albany, last week, according to Hochul. "The entire NYSDOT family is grieving over the death of Highway Supervisor Robert Bornt, who spent his entire life in the service of others, protecting the traveling public through his work at the NYS Department of Transportation and making his community a better place through his dedicated work at the Hoosick Falls Fire Department," NYSDOT commissioner Marie Therese Dominguez said in a written statement Thursday. Here's what to know. A Hoosick Falls resident, Bornt, 54, was a member of the Hoosick Falls Fire Department for 27 years, including his most recent position of fire chief, a member of the Town of Hoosick Rescue Squad for over 25 years and the CSEA regional union president, according to his obituary. "Whether responding to calls or offering his knowledge and steadfast support, (Bornt) was always ready to lend a helping hand," the Town of Hoosick Rescue Squad said in a May 31 Facebook post. "His commitment, generosity and service to our community left a lasting impact on all who had the privilege of working alongside him." When he wasn't on duty, Bornt spent time coaching softball, hunting, riding snowmobiles and spending time with his grandson, Bentley. Bornt is survived by his grandson, wife, Sabrina Bornt, his mother, Patricia Bornt, children Charles Hodge Bornt and Allyson Bornt, sister, Julie Bryant and several other family members.
