Update: One suspected arrested in Car Outlet robbery

An arrest has been made in connection with the robbery Friday afternoon at Car Outlet on Fort Campbell Boulevard.

Hopkinsville police Detective Samantha Rodriguez arrested 40-year old Charles Hollowell of Hopkinsville and charged him with first-degree robbery and tampering with evidence.

Police say two men wearing Halloween masks forced their way into the business and assaulted an employee before fleeing with cash a few minutes before 4:30 p.m. Friday. An arrest citation for Hollowell says he was captured on video surveillance purchasing a mask prior to the robbery that matches the description of one worn by one of the suspects.

Officers located the discarded masks and stolen property during their investigation.

The second suspect remains at large and anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers at 270-887-TIPS.
