The Kentucky State Police Critical Incident Response Team has been requested by Post 4 in Elizabethtown to investigate an officer-involved shooting that occurred on Monday, November 10, 2025, around 3:45 p.m. EST in Nelson County.
The preliminary investigation indicates that a man contacted 911, advising dispatch that his son was at his residence, firing a weapon in a threatening manner.
Afterward, the suspect, 37 year-old Terry Carney, Jr. of Bardstown, left the home in his truck.
A short time later, Nelson County Sheriff’s Office deputies located him and attempted to initiate a traffic stop. Carney rammed a deputy’s cruiser with his truck, and an officer fired at the vehicle. Carney fled the scene, and the vehicle pursuit continued until he drove his truck off the roadway, where it came to rest in the 400 block of Woodlawn Road. Carney immediately exited the vehicle while holding a firearm and fired his weapon. Officers also fired their weapons.
Carney sustained fatal injuries. No officers were injured during this incident. An autopsy will be performed by the Office of the State Medical Examiner in Louisville.
The investigation into the incident remains ongoing by the Kentucky State Police.
