KY- I-75 Active Shooter Targeting Vehicles

[Snoopster]

I agree. They were for the longest time on the north side of 75 however now they’re on the south.

Wouldn't all of the shooting victims have been flown and ambulanced away by now? Could these helicopters be there 'just in case'?

It’s also possible they’re transporting patients to hospitals with a higher level of care. Stabilize them at one and then fly them to another.

Yes, I would think. And possibly but idrk.

Could the transport be in two legs? When my dad was hit by a drunk driver, an ambulance brought him to the nearest ER in a small town but then he was airlifted from that small hospital to a bigger trauma center.

All five victims are in stable condition, and authorities are searching for one shooter, Laurel County Sheriff’s Office Public Affairs Deputy Gilbert Acciardo told CNN.

That's great news that they are in stable condition!

 

[airportwoman]

Maybe the second helicopter is doing double duty - surveillance until or unless it's needed for medevac?

 

[Otterly]

Since a suspect vehicle description or license plate number has not been released, I'm thinking police might have the shooter's car in their custody or maybe they have it under surveillance (in case he comes back to it).
