LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Oldham County Police Detectives have identified the man who robbed a Prospect Liquors on Sept. 2 as Isaac Beck of Smithville, TN. 

Detectives coordinated with other law enforcement agencies and determined that at the time of the robbery, the 25-year-old was driving a silver Toyota Camry, originally described by a witness as a Nissan, stolen from Casey County, KY. 

Beck was arrested the afternoon of Sept. 2 by the Salem Police Department on charges unrelated to the investigation, and is currently lodged in the Washington County Detention Center.

An Oldham County arrest warrant for robbery and wanton endangerment has been issued and officials will coordinate with Indiana for extradition back to Kentucky. 

Around 10 a.m., Oldham County Police responded to the call of a robbery at Prospect Liquors in the 13000 block of West Highway 42.
