Three people were arrested on Thursday night in Perry County for looting following the historic flooding that hit our region last week.

 

The individuals were discovered in the Lost Creek area and transported to the Kentucky River Regional Jail.

 

According to Perry County Sheriff’s Office Officials, there is no official charge for looting, but it is considered to be theft, which is a misdemeanor. Deputies are patrolling the communities that have been hit the hardest, especially at night.

 

If you see someone you believe to be looting, you are asked to call 911.
