Los residentes de Lexington están discutiendo tres temas: la remoción de un mural conocido como "Jelly Roll mural" y los planes del festival PRHBTN para crear nuevas obras del 19 al 23 de octubre, preocupaciones sobre una tienda de vapeo en Richmond Road que vendía productos nixodine sin etiquetar claramente que no contienen nicotina, y la suspensión de tres meses sin pago del oficial de policía Caleb Croney por entrar a la fuerza a un Waffle House con su cámara corporal apagada, siendo esta su tercera queja formal desde su contratación en enero de 2020.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Residents on r/Lexington are talking today about three topics drawing community comment: the removal of a prominent mural, concerns about a local vape shop’s product labeling, and details about a police officer’s suspension.
In one thread, users celebrated the removal of what they called the “Jelly Roll mural,” with the original poster simply announcing “THEE mural is gone.” Several commenters expressed relief at its disappearance. The thread also mentioned that PRHBTN, the annual non-profit mural festival in downtown Lexington, is planning new work for October 19-23, with the festival having produced over forty murals in downtown Lexington over the past ten years. One resident noted the location of an unrelated “General Zod” mural on Winchester Road, explaining it was painted to honor Michael Shannon, the actor who is from Lexington.
A separate thread focused on a consumer warning about nixodine products sold at a vape shop on Richmond Road. The original poster said the shop was selling flavored e-juice under the nixodine brand without clearly marking it as non-nicotine. One commenter who works at a local smoke shop confirmed that “due to newish regulations and restrictions we can’t sell nicotine disposables anymore” and that shops are required to clearly label nixodine as “NOT nicotine” to customers. The discussion highlighted confusion among consumers about what they were purchasing and whether products met FDA standards.
A thread discussing a police officer’s suspension drew particular attention to details from his personnel file. A Lexington police officer received a three-month unpaid suspension for pushing his way into a closed Waffle House and berating the security guard who tried to stop him — with his body camera off. The Urban County Council approved the 90-day suspension for Officer Caleb Croney at its June 18 meeting. It was Croney’s third formal complaint since he was hired in January 2020. Community members zeroed in on a detail from the investigation: Croney never activated his body-worn camera during the exchange, as policy requires. Several residents expressed frustration about his record and questioned whether further action should be taken.
A lighter thread emerged titled “Mitch lives…” appearing to reference a local figure, though the specific context from the image post was not provided. The thread generated comedic replies but offered little substantive discussion.
