One Kentucky Police Department is searching for two star-crossed lovers, and the result is a hilarious modern-day "wanted poster."

The Power of Social Media

Social media is a great tool to use for finding missing people, children, and even pets.  Sometimes, it's even used to find lawbreakers and bring them to justice. The power of social media is not something to be underestimated.  News travels so incredibly fast, that anymore we get news almost as it happens.  You can see a Facebook post go from zero to one hundred people in a flash. Because of this we often see law enforcement utilizing social media to help with investigations.  In a way social media has kind of become a modern-day version of a wanted poster.

Recently one Kentucky police department has gone viral because of a hilarious "wanted" poster they shared capturing the love story of a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde (kind of).

We would love to introduce you to 34-year-old Whitney Nicole Summitt of Louisville. We believe based on some good police work, that she is helping her sweetheart 36-year-old Kenneth Asbury AVOID US. You may remember he was not too happy to have his picture taken when we shared it last week.

This lover’s game includes setting them up together and treating them to an all-expense experience what comes with a beautiful set of matching sterling silver bracelets all shiny and new that will put the sparkle back in the romance to keep that flame burning. This experience also comes with an armed Chauffer or two that will go out and pick them up in one of our most luxurious sedans and drive them to one of the best places #Louisville has to offer….but that is not all. This trip will include glamour shots to help mark the occasion and a dinner that will put to shame any 5-star restaurants. Finally, the most exciting part is the luxurious accommodations that we can bestow to them. It will truly be a time to remember as we celebrate this special time together.
