A well-known Laurel County attorney has died after what Coroner Doug Bowling said was a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The shooting happened on Spring Street in London around 11:00 Thursday morning. Warren Scoville, 75, was pronounced dead at St. Joseph Hospital.
A press release from the Laurel Co. Sheriff’s Office says that Sheriff John Root received a call from Scoville saying that he planned to harm himself. Scoville told Root where he could be found.

Scoville was involved in such high-profile cases as the murder trial for former Kentucky lawmaker Steve Nunn. Funeral arrangements are pending.
