Christian Eugene Best, 22, was found inside a car with a fatal gunshot wound on the night of Friday, April 11, 2025, in the area of Thorndale Drive and Paris Pike in Georgetown, Kentucky. A graduate of Scott County High School, he enjoyed drawing, archery and outdoor activities and liked watching superhero movies with his sister. The Scott County Coroner’s office responded and the Georgetown Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

Two days later, on early Sunday morning, 20-year-old Ezekiel Hofsteader was arrested and lodged in the Scott County Detention Center. Authorities charged Hofsteader with reckless homicide and also with possession of marijuana and buying or possessing drug paraphernalia. The arrest marked a major development in a case that has left Best’s family and the community mourning.

Does anyone in the Georgetown area have information about Christian’s last movements or the events on Thorndale Drive and Paris Pike that night?
