Leestown shooting suspect still at large

This from the Herald-Leader, video of FCPS press conference with Supt Stu Silberman:

Custodian slain; Two men had a recent conflict
José Daniel Donato left his home in Nicholasville about 6 a.m. Tuesday to go to Leestown Middle School in Lexington, where he worked as a custodian. His wife, Carrie Donato, said that the trouble he might have had with a guy at work wasn't something he discussed with her.

Two hours later, Donato, 38, was dead in the school. And Lexington police launched a search for fellow custodian Brian Allen McGuire, 27, who was probably driving a beige 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara, Kentucky license plate 769-FVB.

McGuire, who faces a murder charge, is considered armed and dangerous. Lexington police have entered his name and the description of his car into a national law enforcement database.

Only a day earlier, on Monday afternoon, McGuire had reported to Fayette County schools' central office that Donato had displayed a knife to him last Friday and asked him if he was afraid, according to school officials.

School superintendent Stu Silberman said that McGuire, who had worked at the school for three years, told a human resources representative that he did not feel threatened by Donato...
