Just before 2 p.m. on Friday, May 3, 2019, local law enforcement was advised by Nelson County Dispatch that the bank had been robbed by a woman who fled the scene in a white Chevrolet HHR. At the time of the call, Bardstown Police Officer Brad Carrico was conducting a traffic stop on KY 245 when he saw the suspect’s vehicle turn north from Culpepper onto KY 245. He pursued the vehicle onto Spencer Mattingly, and the pursuit ended in an open field. Carrico had the female in custody by 2:04 p.m.

Bail was set at $50,000 cash only, plus conditions.
