He was a man-child many embraced. He was an enigma who wouldn’t let anyone close enough to know what was inside him. He was a soul in search of something. He was overwhelmed by a problem no one could seem to identify.

This was a man-child who became angry at a coworker and was fired from his job, a large, forceful man who would not control his emotions until police took him away from his workplace and put him in a cell.

A Campbellsville man filed suit Friday in Shelby Circuit Court, alleging that a Shelbyville doctor mistakenly amputated body parts during a hernia procedure.

Randall Phillips of Campbellsville filed suit Nov. 9 against Dr. Christopher J. Theuer, Surgical Associates PSC of Shelbyville and Louisville Surgical Associates.

Despite the protests of about a half-dozen residents, a proposed outlet mall for the south side of Simpsonville received final approval Tuesday from the Triple S Planning Commission.

Horizon Group Properties, which is developing the $80 million and nearly 364,000-square-foot Outlet Shoppes of Louisville, did not receive the one waiver it requested, opting to remove a request for 33-foot-tall light poles instead of the regulation 25-foot poles to avoid the decision’s being tabled.

Horizon, a Michigan-based company, on Monday submitted its planned unit development (PUD) to the Triple S Planning Commission, meeting the deadline to be on the commission’s agenda for its meeting on March 20.

Triple S Executive Director Ryan Libke said the company’s PUD is very similar to the preliminary plan that it submitted last year with its zone change request.

“There were no real changes other than removing one outlot,” he said.
