Suspect named in Kentucky highway shooter, manhunt ongoing

As authorities search the dense woods of rural Laurel County, Kentucky, for a suspect in the shooting of five people on Interstate 75, investigators say they have yet to establish a motive for the attack but have ruled out “road rage.” The Laurel County Sheriff’s Office has upgraded Joseph A. Couch from a person of interest to a suspect, Deputy Gilbert Acciardo announced at a Sunday afternoon news conference. The shooting occurred about nine miles north of the city of London, Kentucky. The gunman shot into vehicles on the north and southbound lanes of I-75 and five people were struck by gunfire around 5:30 p.m. Saturday, the sheriff’s office said. #kentucky #CNN #news Want to stay up to date on the day's top stories?
