Lexington police have nabbed the suspect in the robbery and shooting of a man.

Duff is also a suspect in an unrelated arson investigation linked to a fire at Bracktown Road. In that incident police say Duff went into the home of Clarence Woodrum.
Police say Duff chased Woodrum and his caregiver into a bedroom where they repeatedly asked him to leave. That’s when documents say Duff told the victims he would set the home on fire. Woodrum and the caregiver were left trapped inside the home.
Woodrum believes his caregiver jumped off the second floor balcony of the home to escape. He was eventually rescued by passers-by. A firefighter was also injured during the blaze.
Duff was out on parole at the time of both incidents after a 2009 conviction for bank robbery.
Duff is charged with two counts of attempted murdered, second degree wanton endangerment, first degree arson and robbery.
