On January 26, 2019, 27-year-old mother of three Iesha Edwards was shot outside The Fox Club, a nightclub on Winchester Road in Lexington, Kentucky, after an altercation inside the club spilled into the parking lot. Police responding to reports of a large disorder found Edwards with a gunshot wound; she was taken to the University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital and died at 2:55 a.m., about thirty minutes after the shooting.

Witnesses described the shooter as a Black man with a beard and tattoos on his right hand and the left side of his neck, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt. Lexington police identified two suspects from Detroit, Michigan: James Edward Ragland II, for whom a murder warrant was issued, and Gaige Phillips, charged with criminal facilitation to commit murder. U.S. Marshals arrested Phillips on January 31, 2019, and Ragland on February 19, 2019; both were extradited to Lexington and later indicted—Ragland on murder and two counts of wanton endangerment, Phillips for facilitation of murder.

Does anyone have information about the night on Winchester Road or about witnesses who saw the disturbance outside The Fox Club?
