On the evening of November 19, 2017, 26-year-old Matthew Lee ’Matt’ Upton was fatally shot in the parking lot outside the Mallgate Apartments in the St. Matthews neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky. Neighbors say he warned his wife to lock the door shortly before multiple gunshots rang out; he was found between two cars with a gunshot wound to the chest and later died at University of Louisville Hospital.

Upton was remembered as kind, friendly, and outgoing, a graduate of Eastern High School and a talented baseball player who later worked as a car salesman at Bill Collins Ford. He left behind his wife, Christina, a daughter, and two step-children. Neighbors reported he had no known enemies.

Initial St. Matthews police work produced few leads, but in May 2018 authorities arrested three men — Dwayne Dunn, Gary Burns, and Quantez Willis — on charges of complicity to murder and complicity to tampering with physical evidence. Police said cell phone records and witness statements placed the men at the scene and that the shooting allegedly occurred during a drug transaction; the suspects were accused of disposing of the murder weapon by throwing it from a getaway vehicle.

Did anyone in St. Matthews see or hear anything that night, or know more about activity in the Mallgate Apartments parking lot prior to the shooting?
