LOUISVILLE — A man accused of carrying a gun into a Wal-Mart in eastern Jefferson County, prompting an evacuation, has been arrested.
Louisville police were called to the store, and police spokeswoman Alicia Smiley says the store was evacuated by the time police arrived around noon EST Friday.
She says a man found in the electronics area was carrying a handgun in the waistband of his pants and was arrested on charges of disorderly conduct and carrying a concealed deadly weapon.
She identified the man as 38-year-old Cecil Ian Hume. He is also facing a first-degree robbery charge involving a Louisville drugstore.
