Lexington police are asking the public to come forward with information related to a shooting at Falcon Crest Apartments. The department said community tips could help investigators determine what happened and identify those responsible for the incident.

In a call for assistance issued July 17, the Lexington Police Department urged residents and anyone else with relevant knowledge to contact investigators directly or use an anonymous tip channel. The department provided a phone number for tips and said tips will be directed to the appropriate investigative personnel.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Lexington Police Department at 859-258-3600. Police also said people may submit an anonymous tip through Bluegrass Crime Stoppers, a program designed to allow residents to report information without identifying themselves.

The request comes as investigators continue their work following the shooting at the apartment complex. Police did not, in the information released through the department’s public request, provide additional specifics such as the identities of people involved, charges, or the status of any investigation beyond the need for public assistance.

Falcon Crest Apartments is in Lexington, and the incident has raised concerns for residents and the broader community. Police say public cooperation is often a key factor in moving cases forward, particularly when investigators need additional details that may be known to nearby residents or witnesses.

For members of the public, the department’s message is focused on actionable information, including what was seen or heard and anything that could help link specific individuals or events to the shooting. Police did not indicate a deadline for tips in the information released publicly with the request.

After tips are received, investigators are expected to follow up and assess the information as part of the ongoing review of the incident. Anyone who contacts police or submits a tip through Bluegrass Crime Stoppers is expected to provide details that can be verified and help law enforcement advance the investigation.
