LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A man was killed in a shooting on Monday evening in the Russell neighborhood, according to Louisville Metro Police.

LMPD Maj. Nick Owen said police responded to a shooting at South 26th and West Madison streets around 7:30 p.m. Police found a man who had been shot. He died at the scene, which was outdoors.

"At this point, suspects are at large," Owen said. "This occurred in broad daylight in a heavily traffic area, so I'm pretty confident there are witnesses."

15 minutes earlier, a man was killed at a gas station on West Broadway. Owen said police don't believe the two killings were connected.
