One jailed, one shot in alleged attempted robbery
BLOOMFIELD — One man is in jail and another still in the hospital after being shot while allegedly attempting to rob a Greene County business.
The Greene County Sheriff’s Department reported Saturday evening that Chad Rollins was in jail on allegations of theft, burglary and conspiracy to commit burglary.
John D. Lawson remained Saturday in Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis. A condition update was not available.
Rollins and Lawson were reportedly shot by the owner of K and H Auto in Greene County early Friday morning when he saw them on the property and ordered them to show their hands. One of the men allegedly pointed something toward the owner and the owner fired his weapon.
The item was reportedly a flashlight.
Rollins’ bail is set at $14,000.
