LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Police said one man is dead and a woman is injured after a shooting at the corner of South 8th Street and West Chestnut streets outside the Jefferson Community and Technical College/Technical Campus.
According to Maj. Russell Miller of the Louisville Metro Police Department, incident took place around 11:00 a.m. After the shooting, the suspects got into a vehicle and drove away, according to witnesses.
One man died and a woman was injured. The condition of the woman is not known.
The shooting happened outside of the JCTC building, according to Miller, and was unrelated to the active shooter situation outside a downtown Louisville office building earlier in the day.
There are currently no suspects. Miller said investigators were trying to pull surveillance video from the school and surrounding area.
Out of precaution, police searched the campus to make sure the facility was clear of any threats.
There is NO active aggressor at JCTC at 8th Chestnut streets. We are confirming that there was a shooting outside, and the suspects fled prior to police arrival.
