Peyton Nicole Hurt, 15, of Boaz, Kentucky, was shot at a gathering in Ledbetter on the evening of Saturday, June 9, 2018. She was taken to Baptist Health in Paducah with life-threatening injuries, placed on life support, and pronounced dead on Sunday night, June 10, 2018. Peyton was described as musically talented, creative, devoted to family and friends, a member of Grace Fellowship Church, and an organ donor whose gifts helped seven recipients.

Kentucky State Police responded to the Ledbetter residence about 8:29 p.m. Detectives arrested 19-year-old Tyler Jones of Ledbetter, identified as Peyton’s ex-boyfriend; he was initially charged with first-degree assault and the charge was amended to murder after her death. A 20-year-old, Alexis Johnson of Paducah, was arrested and charged with hindering apprehension. Both were lodged in the McCracken County Jail.

Does anyone who knew Peyton or was in Ledbetter that night have information that could help clarify what happened?
