Johnny Lynn Curry, 37, of Crawfish Road in Manchester, Kentucky, was shot at the junction of Kentucky Highway 149 and U.S. 421 South on Monday, September 7, 2020. Deputies and emergency personnel responded around 1:30 p.m.; Curry was taken to AdventHealth in Manchester but died from his injuries that day. His funeral services were held September 11 at Rominger Funeral Home with burial in Manchester Memorial Gardens.

Authorities say 41-year-old Terry Wagers of Rocky Branch Road drove to the Clay County dispatch building after the shooting, arrived with the handgun he used, and surrendered. He was booked the afternoon of September 7 and charged with murder; investigators tied his confession and the weapon to the shooting at the highway junction.

Family remembered Johnny as a devoted father to Jadelynn Curry and Paris Dean and a grandfather to Addalyn Faith Collette, tied to the Clay County community where he was born and raised. Does anyone who lived near that junction or knew Johnny have additional information about what happened that afternoon?
