LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A man was shot and killed at Dosker Manor apartments in Louisville on Saturday evening, according to Louisville Metro Police.
LMPD spokesperson Dwight Mitchell said police responded to a report of a shooting at the subsidized apartments in the Phoenix Hill neighborhood around 6 p.m. When police arrived on scene, they found a man who had been shot.
He was taken to University Hospital, where he died. According to the Jefferson County Coroner's Office, the victim was 32-year-old Daniel West.
LMPD's Homicide Unit is handling the investigation, but there are no known suspects. Anyone with information regarding the case can call the anonymous tip line at 502-574-LMPD or use the online Crime Tip portal here.
Last November, a 39-year-old man was shot and killed at the apartments. Dosker Manor apartments on East Muhammad Ali Boulevard are subsidized housing with low-rent costs intended for seniors and disabled community members.
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.
