Lexington police seeking information regarding recent shots-fired incidents

The Lexington Police Department is urging the public to report any information regarding “shots-fired incidents” that happened over the weekend.

A release from the department asks anyone who may have information regarding two incidents—one that occurred on Newtown Pike on Friday and another that happened in the area of Old Todds Road and Palumbo Drive on Saturday—to submit information to the police department or Bluegrass Crime Stoppers.

Police say both of the incidents involved shots being fired from vehicles, but they do not appear to be connected.

Investigations into both incidents are active, but no information on suspects is available at this time, according to a release. Residents and business owners are being asked to check their cameras for anything that may help police and to call (859) 258-3600 if anything is found.

On Friday at around 8:38 p.m., officers responded to a call of shots fired in the area of Newtown Pike and West Third Street, where two cars were reportedly shooting at each other. When they arrived, they found property damage but no injuries.
