Gary Green, who was thought to be living on the streets, was in the Jefferson County Jail yesterday without bond after being arrested Wednesday night. He is scheduled to be arraigned today in Jefferson District Court. The Louisville and Audubon Park police also were involved in the investigation over the past few months. It's not like having people lurking around in cars. He just jumps off a bus.
Nobody pays attention.
At the time of his arrest, Green, who is originally from Goshen in Oldham County, was on five years' probation for staging a robbery with a toy gun at a Meijer store earlier this year, Jeffrey said. Police were headed toward a home Wednesday night where they had been tipped off that they might find Green when they spotted him walking down Rockford Lane near Dixie Highway, Jeffrey said. His felony charges also include fraudulent use of credit cards and criminal possession of a forged instrument in connection with alleged check crimes, Jeffrey said. Since the case was publicized, St. Matthews police have received many calls from other burglary victims, Jeffrey said. Green is a suspect in two Sept. 19 burglaries on Bonner Avenue in St. Matthews and in burglaries in Audubon Park and elsewhere in Louisville and Jefferson County, Jeffrey said.
