Hospital Shooter Suspect Faces New Charges

November 28, 2024 by Mable Cundiff


The man accused of firing a gun at the Baptist Health Hardin ER is now facing additional charges.

George Lee, Jr., 39, is now charged with possession of fentanyl, cocaine and heroin as well as handgun possession by a convicted felon. He was previously charged with kidnapping and wanton endangerment after bringing the weapon into the hospital on October 19, 2024.

An Elizabethtown Police Officer shot and wounded Lee, who was taken to Louisville for treatment, then lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center when released from the hospital.

Lee remains in the Hardin County Detention Center under a $500,000 cash bond and is scheduled to appear in court on December 10.
