Three Hopkinsville residents were arrested in connection with an alleged robbery in Hopkins County yesterday afternoon.

State Police say 38-year old Iria Kittinger of Madisonville called Hopkins County Dispatch around 3:20 and said he was following a vehicle occupied by the people who had just robbed him at gunpoint at his residence.

The vehicles were southbound on the Pennyrile Parkway, with KSP catching up to the suspects on State Highway 800 in Crofton. Arrested were 30-year old Tyrone Poindexter, 21-year old Deandrea Grimes and 24-year old Jeremiah Poindexter—all of Hopkinsville.

They were all charged with First Degree Robbery, with Tyrone Poindexter also charged with possession of a handgun by a convicted felon. A search of the vehicle allegedly turned up guns and marijuana.
