The subject killed in the officer-involved shooting on Rocky Hill Road on March 30, 2023 has been identified by Kentucky State Police.

"At this time, KSP is able to release findings from the preliminary investigation, which reveals troopers from KSP Post 3 were assisting in a vehicle pursuit initiated by the Brownsville Police Department," KSP said in a released statement. 

According to the statement, Brownsville Police initiated a traffic stop on South Main Street in Brownsville at approximately 8:47PM on a white Dodge Caravan, which subsequently fled after initially stopping.  Brownsville Police requested assistance from KSP Post 3 after the operator of the vehicle began firing multiple shots, which struck the officer’s cruiser during the pursuit, KSP said. 

According to the release, troopers from KSP Post 3 joined the pursuit at approximately 9:02PM, and after joining the pursuit, the operator of the vehicle continued firing multiple shots in the direction of the troopers resulting in two KSP cruisers being struck by gunfire during the vehicle pursuit.  The pursuit traveled through the Rocky Hill community of Edmonson County and Smiths Grove community of Warren County before ending behind a residence on Rocky Hill Road in Edmonson County at approximately 9:27PM, according to state police.

KSP said the operator then fled on foot and troopers, Brownsville Police officers, and deputies from Edmonson County Sheriff’s Office continued to pursue the subject.  The operator, identified as 27-year old Cody Brady of Smiths Grove, KY, fled into a ditch line near the residence while brandishing a firearm.  State police also stated that at the conclusion of the foot pursuit, Mr. Brady discharged a firearm.

"Sergeant Jason Adkison observed Mr. Brady brandishing a firearm, perceived a threat, and discharged his agency-issued firearm," the statement said. "Mr. Brady was fatally struck by gunfire and pronounced deceased at the scene by the Edmonson County Coroner’s Office."

The investigation into the incident remains ongoing at this time.

In accordance with KSP’s policies and procedures, Sergeant Adkison was placed on administrative leave. Sgt. Adkison is an 8-year veteran of KSP.
