The Laurel County Sheriff's Office is investigating a death in London following a fight between two roommates.

Kenneth E. Vincent was found dead about 1:30 p.m. Sunday. According to a news release from Sheriff John Root's office Vincent, 36, and his roommate Freddy Couch, 56, got into a fist fight at their home on Laurel Road after an argument.

Vincent allegedly grabbed a knife, but Couch was able to overpower him, the release said.

Neither man called for police or for medical help after the fight ended. Instead, they went to sleep — Couch in his bedroom, and Vincent on the living room floor. Alcohol was involved in the incident, the release said.
