Jeffrey Wayne Flanigan, a 33-year-old Black man from Louisville, was shot and killed on Sunday, May 6, 2018, on Cecil Avenue near West Kentucky Street in the Chickasaw neighborhood. The shooting happened about 9:30 p.m. and was part of a triple shooting that wounded two other people who required hospital care. The Jefferson County Coroner attributed Flanigan’s death to gunshot wounds.

Louisville Metro Police opened a homicide investigation at 1027 Cecil Avenue, but no suspects were immediately identified or arrested and the case remains open. Family and friends held a visitation and funeral at Forest Baptist Church later that month. Anyone with information that could help bring answers to the family and lead to an arrest is asked to come forward.
