On the evening of November 16, 2024, a shooting on North Limestone in Lexington, Kentucky, left 25-year-old Chance Gist dead. Police responded just before 9 p.m. near New Circle Road after reports of gunfire. Officers found Gist with a gunshot wound; he was taken to a nearby hospital but did not survive. The Fayette County Coroner later confirmed his death.

A second person suffered minor injuries in the same incident and did not require hospitalization. Authorities cordoned off North Limestone from Rosemary Avenue to New Circle Road while investigators worked the scene. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced; police have not released details about what led up to the shooting.

Gist, a Black man from the community, had previously been involved in a high-profile trial in 2018 as a witness in the 2016 murder case of 15-year-old Trinity Gay, daughter of Tyson Gay. Anyone with information about the November 16 shooting or who knew Chance Gist is asked to come forward.
