8-month-old killed, 2-year-old severely burned in Southern Kentucky house fire on Monday, KSP reports
TOMPKINSVILLE, Ky. (LEX 18) — Kentucky State Police say that an eight-month-old is dead, and a two-year-old has been left with severe burns after a house fire on West Sixth Street in Tompkinsville, Kentucky, on Monday.
According to a release, 25-year-old Ashton Wright was asleep when she woke up to her house full of smoke. Wright had two children in the house at the time of the fire, and with
the help of a neighbor, they were able to get one child out of the house but could not reach the other.
Firefighters then got into the house, where they found the body of the eight-month-old, the release states.
KSP says that the two-year-old was taken to the hospital for treatment of severe burns.
The fire is believed to have originated from an electric space heater, but the investigation is still ongoing, according to the release.
KSP Post 15 in Columbia got a call from the Monroe 911 Center on Monday at 1:07 p.m. requesting investigative assistance in the matter.
As for the Aggies, the only name on the report is Mackenzie Mgbako, a one-time Kentucky target who remains out for the season after undergoing foot surgery. Texas A&M head coach Bucky McMilan said today that Mgbako will return next season, which would be a big boost for the Aggies before the offseason begins.
Kentucky vs. Texas A&M Injury Report
COVINGTON, Ky. (WKRC) – The Licking River Bridge was demolished Monday morning in a controlled blast, clearing the way for a replacement structure.
Authorities established a 1,000-foot safety perimeter, closed nearby roads and asked residents to shelter in place before the demolition. The bridge collapsed within seconds of the blast.
“Today we say goodbye to a bridge that has served Kentuckians for nearly a century and we make room for something new. A signature bridge that is safer, stronger and we make room for something new,” Gov. Andy Beshear said. “This region, like the rest of the commonwealth, is evolving, it is booming, it’s economy growing every day. What we’re doing together is building our new Kentucky home.”
The Licking River Bridge is now history after crews brought it down with a controlled demolition Monday morning. (WKRC)

Crews will begin construction on the new bridge after debris removal is complete. The replacement bridge is expected to open in the summer of 2028.
