The search continues for the people responsible for robbing and shooting a Laurel County man continues.
Deputies think the shooting at the home on Taylor Bridge Road happened because the victim recognized a person with the robbers and opened the door for them.
“We just know they’re acquaintances, we’re not sure of anything beyond that,” said Deputy Gilbert Acciardo.
They believe Trey Hedrick opened the door at his parents’ house for an under-aged teen girl.
Shortly after, investigators say that two men got inside the home for a violent confrontation and theft.

The victim was shot in the hip with a pistol and deputies say those responsible left the house.
Hedrick was flown to UK Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Police are searching for the three responsible. The Sheriff’s Office says that they have an idea as to who the girl is and at least one of the guys.
“Fits the description of a young lady who has been a juvenile runaway in this area who was accompanied by a male, and the vehicle description was a white Cadillac and that male did have a white Cadillac so we’re thinking we have an idea on this particular case,” said Acciardo.
Deputies added that this was a targeted attack and there is no reason for others to be concerned. If you have any information, you’re asked to call the Laurel County Sheriff’s Office.
