A man was shot and killed inside a public housing apartment building in Louisville’s Phoenix Hill neighborhood on Saturday night.
Louisville Metro Police Department Maj. Shannon Lauder said police responded to a shooting at Dosker Manor apartments at 8 p.m. Dosker Manor apartments on East Muhammad Ali Boulevard are subsidized housing with low-rent costs intended for seniors and disabled community members.
Police found a man believed to be in his 40s with multiple gunshot wounds. He died at the scene.
Lauder said all parties have been accounted for and a person was detained after the shooting.
Residents of Dosker Manor have endured deplorable living conditions, leading them to plead for relief from Louisville Metro Housing Authority. Months after reports of bed bugs, mold, mice, maggots and other problems at the public housing, people who live at Dosker Manor said very little has been accomplished.
Anyone with any information related to the shooting is asked to call Louisville Metro Police Department’s anonymous tip line at (502)574-5673.
