A large field party near KY 144 and St. Lawrence Road in Knottsville, Daviess County, Kentucky, ended in gunfire in the early hours of Saturday, March 7, 2026. Nineteen-year-old Brody Lanham was shot at the gathering and was privately taken to Owensboro Health Regional Hospital, where he died of his injuries. A juvenile also suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was treated and released.

Investigators traced two men from Oldham County to the party after they were invited by attendees. They were identified as 20-year-old James Carr of Crestwood and 19-year-old Ayden Louis Farrow of La Grange. Farrow was stopped by Oldham County officers during a traffic stop and Carr later surrendered to the Florence Police. Both were charged in connection with Lanham’s death; Carr faces murder, second-degree assault, and tampering with physical evidence charges, while Farrow was initially charged with hindering prosecution or apprehension and tampering and later also charged with murder and second-degree assault. Both entered not guilty pleas and were lodged in the Daviess County Detention Center, with bonds set at $1 million for Carr and $250,000 for Farrow. Investigators say they do not expect further arrests.

Did anyone who attended that Knottsville gathering or who knows Brody have information that could clarify what led to the shooting?
