Lexington Police Make Arrest After Teen Is Shot And Killed
Police have arrested the man they believe is responsible for a Lexington teen’s murder.
20-year-old Ernest Wheeler III was taken to the Lexington-Fayette County jail after an investigation into the death of 18-year-old Patrick Puckett.
The coroner says Puckett was found shot in the chest in an apartment building on Ryan Circle around 8 Wednesday night, then taken to UK Hospital where he died.
Puckett had been a student at Bryan Station High School before transferring to Henry Clay a few weeks ago.
