One of the four people involved in a 2019 carjacking at the Hopkinsville Wal-Mart that led to a police chase and the shooting of a Hopkinsville police officer has been sentenced to 18 years in federal prison.
Keith Kuzyk of Clarksville was given the sentence Friday by Senior District Court Judge Thomas B. Russell. There will be three years of supervised release following the sentence.
U.S. Attorney Russell Coleman said “this lawlessness will not be tolerated in the Western District of Kentucky.” He added that anyone who puts families and law enforcement at risk through armed carjacking and shooting at a police officer should be prepared to face decades in prison.
