Sources confirm to WLKY that a person was shot Wednesday morning at a school bus stop in Louisville’s Russell neighborhood. The incident occurred in the same area where gunfire was reported just last week, raising concerns about safety in the community.
Details remain limited, but early reports indicate the shooting took place shortly after sunrise, a time when many students and parents were gathered at neighborhood bus stops. Witnesses say the scene quickly filled with police officers and emergency responders, who secured the area and provided medical aid to the victim. The individual’s condition has not yet been disclosed.
Louisville Metro Police Department detectives are on scene, gathering evidence and speaking to potential witnesses. At this time, no arrests have been made, and authorities have not released any information about a suspect or possible motive.
The repeated gunfire in the area has left many residents unsettled, particularly parents concerned for the safety of children commuting to school. Community leaders are urging anyone with information to contact law enforcement immediately to help bring those responsible to justice.
