A thief made away with a National Guardsman’s vehicle overnight, and also got away with the guardsman’s military gear and a few weapons.
Although a few personal weapons including a personal computer are still missing, quick action from a fellow guardsman is credited with finding the vehicle in just a few hours. A shotgun and pistol remain missing from the vehicle of Major Travis Huber, who was in Frankfort for training.

When Huber isn’t on duty, he serves the public in a different role as Gallatin County School Superintendent. He says he can’t believe the theft happened, but is grateful to his fellow Guardsman who noticed the license plate and located the vehicle.
“Glad to be a member of the Army National Guard family,” Huber says. “That’s what we’ve always done, we take care of each other and we’re going to continue to do that.”
Frankfort police found some useable prints in the vehicle, but they say their main priority is to recover the firearms and get them off the street. In Kentucky, firearm theft is a Class D felony, which can land the offender up to five years in jail and up to a $10 thousand fine.
If you have any information on the theft, you’re asked to contact Frankfort police.
