Lex18 reported that the shooting was near the airport, but also indicated that it was at the airport, so details are preliminary. Lexington police also posted about a different scene but it's not clear whether the investigations are related. The second scene was in the 5800 block of Old Richmond Road.

A shooting incident at the Blue Grass Airport, in Lexington, Kentucky on Sunday caused chaos. Locals on social media said people were running around a terminal after shots were fired at around 11:40 AM local time. One person was seriously injured in the shooting.

A Kentucky State Police trooper is recovering after being shot during a traffic stop that preceded Sunday's deadly church shooting in rural Lexington.

The suspect fled the airport shooting to a church on Richmond Road, where he shot four more people, killing two, before he was killed by police.

“Kentucky, we are aware of a series of incidents in Lexington around one suspect, including a trooper-involved shooting and an additional shooting at Richmond Road Baptist Church with multiple injuries,” Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear wrote on X. “The trooper and others are being treated at a nearby hospital.

The idea that you’d be at church on a Sunday and be subjected to violence is antithetical to what our country is," Gov. Andy Beshear said.
