当局表示，周四肯塔基州一起银行抢劫案中两名员工遭枪击身亡，警方正在搜捕嫌疑人。
肯塔基州州警称，一名身着浅色连帽衫、戴口罩和手套的男子前往列克星敦以南约36英里的布雷市一家美国银行，枪杀了该银行的一男一女两名员工。两人的身份信息尚未立即公布。
“这对布雷市来说是糟糕的一天，”州警发言人斯科蒂·彭宁顿巡警在新闻发布会上表示。“他们是在我们社区工作的同胞，如今却离我们而去了。”
彭宁顿表示，警方掌握了一些线索，正“尽最大努力将这名恶人绳之以法”。

目前尚不清楚嫌疑人是否从银行劫走了财物。当地和州警与联邦调查局及其他联邦机构一同展开了响应。
州警在社交媒体上发布了嫌疑人照片，并呼吁民众提供任何相关线索。警方称该男子身高约6英尺3英寸，徒步逃离了现场。
“如果你看到反常情况，觉得不对劲——比如说，你的狗行为异常——就给我们打电话，”彭宁顿说道。
附近学校曾短暂进入 lockdown（ lockdown 中文通常译为“封锁警戒”或“就地避难”，结合校园场景译为“就地避险”），直至官员确认校园安全。彭宁顿表示，当时学生不允许乘坐巴士离校，必须由家长前来接走。
美国银行在发给美联社的一份声明中称，该行正与执法部门密切合作，并承诺为受害者家属和银行同事提供支持。
“我们对今天早些时候肯塔基州布雷市分行两名员工在这起悲剧事件中丧生深感悲痛，”该公司在声明中表示。“我们向受害者家属、我们的同事以及整个布雷社区致以慰问。”

Two employees were shot and killed Thursday in a bank robbery in Kentucky, and a search was underway for the suspect, authorities said.
Kentucky State Police said a man wearing a light-colored hoodie, a mask and gloves went to a U.S. Bank in Brea, about 36 miles south of Lexington, and shot and killed a man and a woman, both employees at the bank. Their names were not immediately released.
“This is a terrible day for Brea,” Trooper Scottie Pennington, a state police spokesperson, said at a news briefing. “They’re our people that work in our community, and they’re no longer with us.”
Pennington said authorities had some leads and were “trying our best to bring this evil person to justice.”

It’s unclear if the suspect left the bank with anything. Local and state police responded along with the FBI and other federal agencies.
State police posted a photo of the suspect on social media and asked the public to call with any information. Police said the man was approximately 6-foot-3, and fled the scene on foot.
“If you see something strange and you don’t feel right about it — you know, your dogs are acting weird — call us,” Pennington said.
Nearby schools were briefly placed on lockdown until officials determined the campuses were safe. Students weren’t allowed to leave on buses and instead had to be picked up by their parents, Pennington said.
U.S. Bank told the Associated Press in a statement that it was working closely with law enforcement and committed to supporting the victims’ families and bank colleagues.
“We’re deeply saddened by the tragic event that took the lives of two of our employees at our Berea, Kentucky branch earlier today,” the company said in a statement. “Our hearts go out to the families of the victims, our colleagues and the entire Berea community.”
