I think it's good for the mayor to stick to messages like, "Don't panic. Lock your doors. Don't open them for anyone. Call in anything legitimately suspicious." There's so much misinformation even to government officials in the immediate aftermath of this stuff that it seems preferable to focus on messaging to the public about what to do and expect, rather than what already happened.

Kentucky shooting live updates: I-75 reopens in Laurel County; shooter remains at large

An active shooter situation caused Interstate 75 near London, Kentucky, to shut down for almost three hours. Four to six people may have been injured.
www.courier-journal.com

"The shooter, who has not been caught, fired shots at I-75 from the edge of a wooded area next to the highway, he said."

and

"Some victims were taken to Saint Joseph London Hospital, and three who suffered head and face trauma were flown off the scene for treatment elsewhere, Weddle said. He was not able to confirm where those victims were taken."

and

"Officials are "still working on a very active scene," Pennington said more than an hour after the Laurel County Sheriff's Department first reported the shootings on social media at 6:36 p.m. "We have no clue where he is at," he said about investigators' progress on tracking down a suspect."
 

49er Truck Stop off of I-75 near shooting.

From google maps image in this article, it looks like the wooded area nearby also has some rental cabins, Wildcat Rental Cabins, but they are about 21 miles from the highway, so unlikely that the shooter would be able to make it that far before being apprehended. Of course there may be privately owned cabins in the woods as well. Hopefully, the rental cabins and any private homes/cabins were told to evacuate once the authorities determined that the shooter had escaped into the wooded area nearby.

It's another mass shooting unrelated, imo, not a copycat. We have shootings almost constantly, to our shame.

Just noticed this thread a little bit ago and I’ve caught up. Still a little confused about the logistics of what exactly took place and how they had an ID on the suspect so quickly.

Relieved to read that no one was fatally injured.

Commenting to agree with @Inthedetails. Mass murder feels almost routine now and that’s a pathetic commentary on the state of things in our country.

People, please !!!

We're talking about a suspect with an AR-15 and 2000 rounds of ammo.

Do NOT post any information on this public thread that can put the lives of law enforcement and innocent people in danger.

(and do not "Like" posts that do so)

I see this guy as your standard mass shooter; a complete loser who has failed at life. It looks like he failed at this too, at least in regards to what he hoped to achieve with 2k rounds. I think he'll kill himself as police move in, if he hasn't already done so.
 
I hope his family members and exes have all had wellness checks to make sure his spree didn’t start at someone’s home.

Worried he will carjack and create greater devastation in his attempt to flee the area
