Leaders condemn hate speech flyers found in central Kentucky cities

FRANKFORT, Ky. (FOX 56) — Authorities across Kentucky are investigating after Ku Klux Klan (KKK) propaganda was found in several cities of the Bluegrass, including Lexington.

Midway Mayor Grayson Vandegrift announced on Oct. 22 that hundreds of the racist flyers had been scattered downtown, in neighborhoods, and even at a local school.

Vandegrift called the flyers- spreading hateful messages toward people of color – disturbing and completely out of line with Midway’s values.

Investigators asked anyone with information to come forward. Around 6 p.m. on Thursday, the Versailles Police Department posted on Facebook, announcing to community members that officers stood firmly against racism and discrimination in all forms.

“We remain committed to respecting and protecting the safety, rights, and dignity of all people,” Versailles officers wrote.

Gov. Andy Beshear posted on social media Thursday after learning about the racist propaganda to condemn the acts of spreading hate.

“These messages have no place in Kentucky,” Beshear wrote. “Our commonwealth is a place where we lead with love, and we will not tolerate hate.”

Watch: Blast brings down Northern Kentucky bridge

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)

BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT

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.
