TOWN OF LOCKPORT — Eastern Niagara Hospital-Lockport robbery suspect Adam Kibler is being held in the Niagara County Jail on $500,000 bond, according to public records.

Kibler stands accused of robbing the hospital’s emergency room of prescription narcotics shortly before 5 a.m. Saturday.

Kibler had reportedly claimed to have a bomb, in addition to a pair of long guns, all of which he discarded while fleeing the hospital as Lockport Police arrived. The alleged bomb turned out to be an inert device, according to LPD.

Kibler was arrested at his home Saturday afternoon, interrogated and eventually charged with first-degree robbery.
