LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — The Fayette County coroner has identified the victim shot and killed in a Lexington neighborhood Wednesday morning
The coroner said 35-year-old Lowell Anthony Washington, of Louisville, died at about 6 a.m. Wednesday after he was shot multiple times.
"I was actually asleep when a bunch of pops fired off," a neighbor told LEX 18. "It actually sounded like someone was beating the wall with a broom or something."
Two other people were also injured in the shooting, Lexington police said. Their injured are not life-threatening.
Police were called just after 5 a.m. after a report of shots fired on Dalton Court near the Eastland area.
The Fayette County Coroner tells us one man was shot and killed inside an apartment on Dalton Ct. this morning.
