The shooting happened around 8:30 a.m. and officers that responded within minutes “encountered the suspect almost immediately, still firing gunshots,” according to Louisville Metro Police Department Deputy Chief Paul Humphrey.

The lone shooter in the incident – identified by police as someone who “did have a connection” to the bank location – is “deceased,” police said.
