One killed, four injured in shooting at Lexington's Charles Young Park

A shooting occurred just before 7 p.m. on Saturday in the 200 block of Midland Avenue at Charles Young Park in Lexington, Kentucky. Police confirmed that one person was killed and four others were wounded, among them a four-year-old, a 14-year-old and two adults, all with injuries described as non-life-threatening. The department has not released details about a suspect. The incident triggered an emergency mobilization plan from the city, designating a police staffing emergency at 7:24 p.m. and ordering all third-shift officers to report for duty. First District Council Member Tyler Morton had posted a video from the park earlier in the day during the “East End Day” event. The investigation remains ongoing.
