Two men were shot Sunday morning along a Wolfe County road. Both of them are said to be recovering as investigators continue searching for those responsible.
“I’m really concerned about it because I have three children,” said neighbor Judy Hensley.
The shooting happened along Quillins Chapel Road near Campton.
“It’s usually a quiet neighborhood, nothing really happens. Everybody is good neighbors,” said Hensley.

But those neighbors woke up to gunfire just before 9:30 Sunday morning. The sheriff’s department says two men in their mid-30’s parked their car just off of route 1653 and were standing outside of their car. That’s when investigators say two other men in a red truck pulled up and started shooting.
One of the victims was shot in his leg and the other man was shot in the hip. The sheriff’s department called for two helicopters to fly each of the victims, but both services declined due to weather conditions. Both men were taken to Kentucky River Medical Center in Jackson for treatment.
Meanwhile, those living on the area remain alert.
“I’ll keep the children in and of course keep my doors locked during the day and night until they’re caught,” said Hensley.
The victims say they do not know the shooters. Anyone with any information on this case is asked to call police.
