This May will go down as one of the deadliest months in recent years in Louisville, with more than 20 people killed.
Many of those cases add to a list of unsolved homicides in the city as families are left with questions as they grieve.
Headlines all throughout the month of May described just a few of the 22 homicides tracked in Jefferson County.
All of those victims were men, women, teens who lost their lives. Five of the 22 homicides happened in just one day during Mother’s Day weekend, May 11.
Friday night, a man was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries after being shot on South 18th Street in the city’s Russell neighborhood. Another man showed up at University Hospital Friday night with non-life threatening injuries from a shooting. Louisville Metro Police said the shooting happened in the 1300 block of South First Street.
