An emotional Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has revealed two of his “close friends” were among the four victims gunned down in Monday’s Louisville bank shooting.
The Democratic Gov. said another friend was also among the eight injured when a lone gunman stormed into the Old National Bank in the city’s downtown area and opened fire at around 8.30 a.m.
“This is awful. I have a very close friend that didn’t make it today. And I have another close friend who didn’t either,” a tearful Beshear said at a press conference.
“And another who’s at the hospital who I hope is going to make it through.”
Police haven’t yet released the identities of the slain or injured victims.
