Thanksgiving afternoon in Shawnee Park, Louisville, turned deadly during the city’s annual Juice Bowl football games. On November 24, 2016, 26-year-old Michael Lewis Carter and 32-year-old William D. McKee were both killed when gunfire erupted around 1:30 p.m., and five other people were injured. Carter was a Black male.

Several weeks after the shooting, Louisville Metro Police announced ballistic findings that described a chain of events: an altercation in which Michael Carter pulled a gun, shot and wounded a man who survived, then fatally shot William McKee. Officers say Carter was then shot and killed by an unknown person as he tried to leave. Police posthumously cleared McKee’s homicide, identifying Carter as the shooter in that death; Carter’s own killing remains an open homicide with no arrests announced.

Carter’s mother publicly expressed frustration about limited communication and lack of progress from the police a year after the incident. If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information about who fired the shots that killed Michael Carter, please come forward.
