WTHR | Search for Kentucky interstate shooting suspect Joseph Couch shifting from manhunt to investigation @WTHR13News | Uploaded 1 day ago | Updated 15 hours ago
Gov. Andy Beshear, and state and local law enforcement officials announced Tuesday they will be reallocating law enforcement officers searching for suspected Kentucky interstate shooter Joseph Couch.
Officials stressed there will not be any less police presence in the area. Instead, some officers will be moved from Daniel Boone National Forest, where Kentucky State Police set up a command post days ago, to Laurel County and surrounding communities.
Eleven days ago, police say Couch gained access to a ledge which bordered the vast forest overlooking I-75, fired down upon the busy interstate, and hit at least 12 cars and shot five people.
The shocking incident happened in Laurel County near London, Kentucky, about 75 miles south of Lexington.
