LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — Four men pleaded guilty in connection to a shooting that happened on Devonport Drive that sent one man to the hospital.

On Friday, Chris Alonso Vaquera, Macxilliano Bravo, Matthew Vaquera, and Denis Mazariegos, appeared in court. The four men were allegedly involved in the January 2022 shooting where multiple shots were fired at a car.
