Body of Suspect in Kentucky Highway Shooting Found, Ending Manhunt After a two-week manhunt following a shooting on a Kentucky highway that left five people injured, authorities have discovered a body believed to be that of the suspect. The body was found behind the highway exit where the shooting occurred, with items that are thought to belong to the suspect. The suspect, identified as Joseph A. Couch, allegedly opened fire on passing vehicles with an AR-15-style rifle, injuring multiple individuals. The motive behind the shooting remains unclear. The discovery of the body brought relief to the community in Laurel County, with the Kentucky State Police commissioner stating that the manhunt has now concluded. The police had been searching for Mr. Couch in a wooded area near London, employing various resources such as search dogs, helicopters, and drones. The search was challenging due to the difficult terrain in the area. The body was found by troopers and civilians who had been searching the area, including a civilian couple who will receive a reward for their role in locating the body. Mr. Couch, a former Army Reserve member, had a criminal record and had been involved in previous confrontations. The community had been on edge during the manhunt, with schools canceling classes and increased police presence in the area. The cause of death of the suspect is under investigation.
