Kentucky manhunt: Personnel 'reallocated' outside forest as search for I-75 shooting suspect continu
SUMMARY: In Laurel County, a manhunt for suspect Joseph Couch continues 11 days after his alleged shooting spree on I-75. Governor Andy Beshear emphasized that the state will not succumb to fear, stating that the priority is community safety. Over 28,000 acres in the Daniel Boone National Forest have been searched, but with limited results, law enforcement is shifting strategies. They will redirect resources from the forest to local communities, increasing patrols to create a stronger public safety presence. Officials have pursued every tip but have yet to locate Couch, who is still at large.

Advocates against gun violence host symposium in Lexington
SUMMARY: Reports indicate that Lexington experienced fewer shootings and homicides in 2024 compared to the previous year, but community leaders recognize the need for ongoing efforts. At the Symposium on Youth and Young Adult Gun Violence, participants discussed addressing root causes rather than merely treating symptoms. The focus was on understanding the social issues contributing to gun violence, such as lack of housing, food security, and employment. Approximately 100 community members, including leaders from various organizations, collaborated to share resources and strategies. The collective effort aims to create sustainable change to combat gun violence effectively.
For the second year, One Lexington hosted the Symposium on youth and young adult gun violence, with this year’s theme “addressing the sickness, not the symptoms.”
