The calls keep coming in about an accused serial thief writing fake trucker’s checks in multiple Kentucky counties. And when one Beattyville merchant saw Bobby Brewer’s picture on LEX 18 last week, he figured out that was the same guy who had paid him a visit last winter using the same fake checks.
“We knew right away that was the same feller,’ said John Donahoo, owner of Dunahoo Furniture in Beattyville.

Donahoo saw 46-year-old Bobby Brewer’s picture on LEX 18 and says that is the same guy who passed a phony $325 trucker’s check in his store back in February.
Donahoo’s son says Brewer bought two lamps then pocketed the remaining $170.
“He was good at distraction,” said John Donahoo, Junior. “Talking the whole time, get you talking about this and talking about that.”
Police say the Smooth talking Brewer has hit at least five counties – Lee, Fleming, Estill, Magoffin and Clark counties, if not more. He was driving a silver colored vehicle, but ditched it in Wolfe County last week.
Brewer’s own mother-in law identified him to authorities after seeing his photo on TV, but as of now, investigators are still looking for him, and so are the Dunahoos.
“We’d like to invite him back,” said Dunahoo Senior. “Invite him back in to pick up his change if he’s got any coming.”
The checks have EFS transcheck written on the top left corner. If you see Brewer, call police.
