A young man was shot in the chest in an apartment on Winburn Drive just after 4 p.m. Monday.
Someone knocked on the door of the man’s apartment at 1218 Winburn Drive, and when he opened the door, the man was shot, said Lexington Police Lt. Scott Blakely.
He said the man, whose identity was not immediately available, was taken to the University of Kentucky Hospital.
The victim’s brother was at home at the time of the shooting, but he was in another room and did not see what happened, Blakely said.
Police were talking to neighbors to try to get a description of a suspect, but they did not have anything to go on shortly after the shooting. Blakely said the investigation is “very preliminary.”
