SHELBIANA, Ky. — Two Pike County men are in jail after a man said they beat him up and shot at him in order to steal his truck.

Police were called after the victim was found bleeding, saying that two men had stolen his truck. When interviewed, the victim said he had given a man and woman a ride to Shelbiana, and when they arrived at their destination, another man was waiting for them. The second man opened the driver’s door and began beating him while the other man assisted, then they took the truck and fled.

Police began a search for the truck and found it on Road Fork of Left Fork of Island Creek. Two men — identified as Terry Beavers, 45, and King Collins, 46, both of Shelbiana — were standing outside the truck and appeared to be taking parts off of it.

Police confirmed that it was the truck that had been stolen and took the two men into custody. The owner of the truck later positively identified them as the perpetrators.

Both men were charged with receiving stolen property, while Beavers was also charged with robbery and drug possession.

They remain in the Pike County Detention Center.
