KSP officials say 38 year old Sonny Charles received several gunshot wounds after he became engaged in an altercation with 52 year old Harold Scott of Phelps in the parking lot of the Phelps Laundromat on KY 632. After being shot, Charles attempted to flee the scene in a pickup truck, but the truck went across Ky. 632 and into the Right Fork of Peter Creek. Pike County Deputy Coroner Ernest Casebolt pronounced Charles dead at the scene. Scott, who was arrested and charged with murder, remained in the Pike County Detention Center without bond on Saturday.
