Lexington Police Chief Lawrence Weathers said House shot a Kentucky State Police trooper on Terminal Drive at Blue Grass Airport at 11:36 a.m. The trooper pulled over a vehicle over that House was in along with other occupants after receiving a license plate reader alert in the area.

“One of the individuals presented a firearm and shot our trooper, which resulted in very serious injuries,” Kentucky State Trooper spokesperson Matt Sudduth said in a news briefing Monday afternoon. The other occupants of the vehicle were not involved in the shooting and did not flee the scene, Sudduth added.

The trooper is in stable condition at a local hospital, according to Sudduth.

House then allegedly fled the area and stole a vehicle, Sudduth said.

Two women, Beverly Gumm, 72, and her daughter, Christina Combs, 34, were pronounced dead on the scene, according to Kentucky State Police. Gumm was married to the church’s pastor, public records indicate.

The other victims were identified as two males who are in critical condition and are being treated at a local hospital. Weathers would not identify the victims “out of respect for the victims and their families.”
