SNOWY TRACKS LEAD TO ALLEGED ARMED ROBBER

(Richmond, IN)--Two recent Richmond armed robberies have been solved with the help of a dusting of snow.  On Saturday night, Richmond police say a man committed an armed robbery at the Village Mart at the corner of 5th and West Main.  Investigators were able to follow footprints in the light snow to a house in the first block of Richmond Avenue.  There, they took Jaime Ledbetter into custody.  A search warrant was then executed which turned up evidence of a second robbery at the same store two weeks ago.  Ledbetter was being held Monday morning on a $25,000 bond.
