Fayette sheriff's detectives have determined that a reported armed robbery this morning at the intersection of Kenwood and Longview roads did not occur, officials said.

A man reported the robbery to 911 before 9:30 a.m., which sent numerous deputies to the area in the search of a black Suburban vehicle containing a black male that took off towards New Hope Road.

But after speaking with the victim, detectives determined that the crime did not occur at all, said Lt. Belinda McCastle of the Fayette County Sheriff's Office.

Detectives declined to file charges against the man who made the allegation. He could have potentially faced a charge of making a false crime report.
