Kentucky man involved in mass shooting on a Kentucky interstate still armed and on the loose.
The incident occurred Saturday afternoon when Laurel County deputies were called to I-75 near exit 49 in London, Kentucky. When officers arrived on the scene they were met with a chaotic scene. Cars in both lanes were pulled over with emergency flashers on.
9 of the vehicles had been struck by gunfire in both lanes of traffic.
5 people were seriously injured after being struck by gunfire with one victim being struck in the face. 2 additional people were injured in an accident caused by the incident. All of the victims survived and are reportedly in stable condition.
A suspect has been identified although there is no clear motive as officials say this was not a roadrage situation.
The suspect is 32-year-old Joseph Crouch of Woodbine, Kentucky. He is described as 5'10" and 154 lbs.
Multiple agencies are now involved in the search for Crouch and although it was suspended overnight, after it was determined it could put searchers in danger, it is back in full swing this morning. Police are searching a heavily wooded area in the county's north end.
They are asking surrounding communities to stay alert however stating Crouch could pop up anywhere.
The Kentucky transportation cabinet reports I-75 north and southbound exit 49 remains closed. US 25 is closed from the KY 3094 intersection to the Laurel County line.
If you see Joseph Crouch you should not approach him and call 911 immediately.
