Cynthiana is a small city located in Harrison County the U.S. state of Kentucky. In 2005, police officers Rick Grimes and Shane Walsh were involved in a shootout against an escaped convict on a highway. The convict fired his shotgun at Grimes, hitting him in the chest. Rick was taken to the hospital where he spent several weeks healing from his injuries. When he awakened however, he discovered that the world had been overrun by zombies.
Rick returned to his home only to find that his wife and son were nowhere to be found. He met his new neighbors, Morgan Jones and his young son Duane, who inhabitated one of the nearby empty homes. Morgan brought Rick up to date on everything that had happened and together, they went to the police station to stock up on supplies and weapons. Rick let Morgan use a police cruiser, while Rick took another and headed off towards Atlanta in search of his family. [1]
