United States Attorney’s Office Western District of Kentucky officials say an Owensboro man has been sentenced after being involved in an armed robbery spree that involved carjackings and robbing multiple businesses across Jefferson County and Bullitt County.
According to a press release, 47-year-old Daniel York has been sentenced to 24 years in prison, followed by 5 years supervised release for several armed robberies and carjackings he committed over a three-day period in November 2024.
Officials say on November 4, 2024, York entered Nick’s Vape & Smoke Shop in Louisville, pointed a firearm at the employee and took business cash as well as the employee’s vehicle.
The next day, York entered a Marathon Gas Station on Preston Highway in Louisville, pointed a firearm at the employee, and took business cash and the employee’s phone.
On November 6, 2024, York entered O’Reilly Auto Parts in Hillview, pointed a firearm at several employees, and took one of the employees’ vehicles. York was arrested later that same day after leading police in a high-speed chase through Scott County, Indiana, Jefferson County, Kentucky, and finally Jennings, Indiana, while in the last victim’s stolen vehicle.
