Eric Prothero was profiled in this report from KY3-TV and characterized as “a witness with a good eye and some good instincts.” Prothero, a bondsman from Springfield, was the victim of a robbery at a convenience store last Tuesday. According to the report, the accused robber, Travis Patterson, entered the Kum and Go Convenience Store demanding that Prothero and the store clerk get on the floor. After robbing the store, the accused fled the scene in a car. Prothero watched the man leave taking note of his vehicle. Prothero then jumped in his own car, caught up with the Patterson and reported the license plate number of the get-away car to police. Patterson was arrested for the robbery and the hold-up of two other Springfield convenience stores.
Patterson has been charged with three counts of 1st degree robbery and is being held in the Greene County Jail on $150,000 bond.
