 A man and a woman are dead after an exchange of gunfire with police following a pursuit. 

The chase started yesterday in Gallatin County before ending with gunshots on the Exit 14 ramp of I-71 in Oldham County. 

KSP is not releasing much information but said a 911 call came in for some sort of a distress call in Gallatin County.
