BREAKING NEWS Two worshippers shot dead as gunman brings carnage to church after wounding cop at Kentucky's Blue Grass Airport
Daily Mail UK ^ | July 13, 2025 | Nic White

Two churchgoers have been killed and a state trooper seriously wounded in two shootouts during a gunman's rampage.

Panicked passengers ran for their lives as shots were fired at Blue Grass Airport in Lexington, Kentucky, about 11.40am, wounding the trooper.

The shooter carjacked a vehicle and fled 16 miles to Richmond Road Baptist Church, where he was cornered by pursuing cops, police said.

Lexington Police Chief Lawrence Weathers said the gunman, who may have a connection to the congregation, fired on worshippers inside the church.

Beverly Gunn, 72, and Christina Combs, 32, were shot dead as they tried to escape, and two men were wounded and rushed to hospital.

Three Lexington Police Department officers opened fire on the gunman and killed him, Chief Weathers said. He has been identified but his family is yet to be notified.

The wounded deputy was taken to hospital with serious injuries but is in a stable condition, the Lexington Fire Department said.

'We were the first to the scene after the shooting, barely escaping a head-on crash from the shooter while he drove out of the airport the wrong way,' witness Gena Roland said.

What an eternal punishment exiting this life from church then transported to the gates of hell.

I can’t WAIT to see the back-story on this “guy”, if it gets out.

May he writhe in agony in flames for eternity.

Looks like the parallel version
of Luke 17:26-27 (17:26-32 context)

Yeah it’s a good one

Matthew 24:37-39
King James Version

37 But as the Days of Noah were, so shall
also the Coming of the Son of Man be.

38 For as in the Days that were before
the Flood they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage,
until the Day that Noe entered
into the Ark,

39 And knew not
until the Flood came,
and took them all away;
so shall also the
Coming of the Son of Man be.
