At approximately 2:54 p.m., on the same day, the OPD officers responded to a firearm discharge in the 600 Block of Orchard Street. Officers located a residence that had been struck several times by gunfire. There were three people inside the residence that were all uninjured in the incident.
Late Sunday afternoon Owensboro Police Department responded to two separate shots fire calls — one in the 3100 block of Allen Street and the other in the 600 block of Orchard Street. According to OPD Public Information Officer Andrew Boggess, residences at both locations were damaged, but no one was injured. OPD does not have anyone in custody at this time related to the shots fired. Boggess said while he would guess the two are related since they were so close in time, that has not yet been proven. OPD is currently investigating both situations.
