Andy Beshear (D) wrote in a tweet.<\/li>\n<li>&quot;I am headed there now. Please pray for all of the families impacted and for the city of Louisville.&quot;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The big picture:<\/strong> The shooting in Louisville comes just two weeks after a mass shooting at a school in Nashville killed six people, including three children.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FBI Louisville special agents<\/strong> have responded to the scene of the shooting and are assisting law enforcement.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Police say that there is no longer a danger to the public, but LMPD is asking the public to avoid the area. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What they&#x27;re saying: <\/strong>&quot;This is awful. I have a very close friend that didn&#x27;t make it today and I have another close friend who didn&#x27;t make it, either, and one who is at the hospital that I hope is gonna make it through,&quot; Beshear said Monday.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Monday that he and his wife, Elaine Chao, &quot;are devastated by the news coming out of Louisville this morning.&quot;<\/li>\n<li>&quot;Thank you to LMPD and our first responders for your bravery at the scene,&quot; he wrote in a tweet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Editor&#x27;s note: This story has been updated and corrected per LMPD to note that four people were killed, not 5. An earlier version counted the shooter.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>This is a developing story.
