Brandon Bailey with police at WLEX.LEXINGTON, KY (WLEX) - The man wanted for the murder of a Lexington man earlier this month
turned himself in to police after arriving at LEX 18's studios Monday
morning.
Brandon Lamont Bailey, 28, was wanted for the shooting death of
Anthony Logan, 22, who was killed December 1 in front of the apartment
of Logan's sister on Cambridge Drive. Police say Bailey shot Logan after
the two were involved in a fight. A warrant was issued for Bailey the
following day.
Bailey arrived at LEX 18's studios at about 10 a.m., saying he
wanted to turn himself in. Police were called and arrived shortly
after. Bailey said he had a bus ticket to Louisiana and he planned to
hide out with family there, but that family members convinced him to
turn himself in because he claims he shot Logan in self-defense.
