An active shooter is on the loose at a fairground in Louisville, Kentucky.

Police swarmed the active scene at Kentucky Exposition Center, where summer fairgrounds for families are currently staged, on Sunday afternoon.

The horror scene comes just hours after a separate shooter opened fire at Blue Grass Airport in Lexington, Kentucky, before fleeing to a church about 16 miles away.

The fairground shooting occurred about an hour away from this morning's gunfire.

Louisville Metro Police Department said in a statement: 'We are aware of a report of an 'Active Aggressor' on the property of the Fairgrounds in Louisville. At this time there are NO victims found yet. Please avoid the area due to a heavy police presence.'

Terrified witnesses scrambled for cover as officers locked down the area in search of the gunman.

One witness described the panic on social media.

User @Summerisgood14 wrote: 'The park is on lockdown, my family and I are here and we're locked down in a bathroom with maybe 150 people.

'Everyone is taking cover in buildings.'

This is a breaking news story.

What is going on in Kentucky today?

First Nothing is going on at the Fair and Expo center. No major events are scheduled for today, and the State Fair doesnt start until Aug 16th. LMPD has issued a statement about this part of the story being false.
There was a verified shooting incident at a Church in Lexington Ky.
This story may be AI at work, AI is a fancy title for Bullshit !

First at the airport, now at the Expo Center. Aren’t there any CCW carriers at either place?

Thank you, you can pull this from the sidebar now.

A maintenance crew broke a glass panel from inside (lol, window cleaning rig) and the ghetto baseketball show inside took it for shots fired -- naturally.

Even the 2-hour cooloff at the amusement park is over now and situation normal. The Lexington one you can leave up, that one is unfortunately real.

In the olden days all men in church were REQUIRED BY LAW to carry their guns to church, and drill after services. Then came the liberals who got that stopped.

"Funny how we get these shooting incidents when administrations need distractions from things. Seems like both sides use them."

So, you're suggesting that the perp was an agent of the Trump administration?
