Kentucky Church Shooter Was An Inspiring Rapper Named H#### Kong

The man who opened fire inside a Lexington church Sunday (July 13) after allegedly shooting a state trooper while searching for his ex-partner was an aspiring rapper.

Guy House, 47, performed under the name H#### Kong.




In 2018, House released a track titled "Struggle Made Me," where he rapped about violence and inner torment. In the song, he warned, "anyone who messes with me will be found face down in a puddle" and claimed he was "having conversations with demons."




House unleashed violence on Sunday around 11:35 A.M. near Blue Grass Airport when he allegedly shot a Kentucky State Police trooper during a traffic stop. The trooper survived with non-life-threatening injuries.




After fleeing the scene, Guy House reportedly carjacked a vehicle and drove 16 miles to Richmond Road Baptist Church, where a service was underway.




Witnesses said he entered the building in search of the mother of his children, who was not present. According to The Lexington Herald-Leader, Beverly Gumm's daughter was with her mother in the church basement when House arrived.

After being told the woman he was looking for wasn't there, House allegedly responded, "Someone is gonna have to die then." He then shot Gumm, 72, twice, killing her.




House also fatally shot 34-year-old Christina Combs and injured two male parishioners before being killed by responding officers.




Officials described the congregation as a "tight-knit" group, where most attendees were either relatives or longtime friends. The Fayette County coroner confirmed the identities of the deceased and said House died at the church.




Court records show House had a lengthy criminal record, including auto theft and violent offenses.




He had been released from custody in January 2025 and was due in court the day after the shooting for a domestic violence case.




His estranged girlfriend told investigators he struggled with mental illness and drug addiction. Authorities believe the attack was tied to that ongoing domestic dispute.
