Floyd Co. Sheriff John Hunt and County Attorney Keith Bartley held a press briefing over last night’s shooting that killed two deputies.

Hunt says four deputies were first responding officers to serve warrant, and they called for backup when shots were fired at them. #WKYT Image
After calling for help, Hunt says officers from all over responded, even the Floyd County emergency management director.

“We didn’t know where shots were coming from, if it was inside or outside,” said Hunt. “They took cover and were under consistent fire for hours.” #WKYT Image
Hunt says the standoff was resolved after KSP started negotiations with the suspect, Lance Storz. Negations included using family members. Eventually he came outside of his home, and he was taken into custody. #WKYT Image

A TRUE AMERICAN HERO | I was so sad to wake up to the news that Woody Williams passed away early this morning.

“Today at 3:15am, Hershel Woodrow Williams, affectionately known by many as Woody went home to be with the Lord,” The Woody Williams Foundation shared. Image
“Woody peacefully joined his beloved wife Ruby while surrounded by his family at the VA Medical Center which bears his name.”

He was the last living WWII Medal of Honor recipient.
I covered many events where Woody was in attendance honoring our service members, and the Gold Star families of those we lost. It was always a joy to see him and listen to his stories.
