Lexington Police have hit a wall in a stabbing investigation.
When it comes to a police investigation, there’s only so much detectives can do before they ask for the public to help.
Two week ago, right after the stabbing that critically injured the 23-year-old man as he walked down Limestone after leaving Tin Roof, police released a video taken before the incident.

They’re trying to identify two people they want to talk to in connection with the stabbing of Zack Gibbs.
“That guy and girl holding hands,” Lexington Police Department Detective Steve McCown said.
Detectives said the man in the video was wearing jeans and flannel shirt that night while the woman with him was in a black shirt.
Police have been hoping someone could help identify the two but weeks have passed and they hadn’t heard anything.
“It’s my feeling that there were quite a few people out there and talking to some folks that we have previously spoken with that were there and saw what happened, but may not feel they have anything to lend to the investigation,” McCown said.
Police know there was a woman who stopped to check on Gibbs and waited until paramedics got there and a passerby headed downtown.
Currently, Gibbs is home recovering from the attack that could’ve killed him.
“Stabbed multiple times in the back,” McCown said. “Actually received a stab wound to the chest that was very near his heart.”
