On the evening of August 13, 2012, 60-year-old Larry Macklin, known locally as Larry the Lawnmower Man, was found fatally shot in an alley near 23rd Street and St. Louis Avenue in west Louisville. Neighbors said Macklin walked the neighborhood offering to cut grass; they described him as kind and conflict-avoiding.

A single gunshot was heard just before 9:00 p.m., and a witness identified as Dre discovered Macklin’s body later that night. The Jefferson County Coroner pronounced him dead at 10:28 p.m. from a single gunshot wound. Fear of retaliation kept potential witnesses from coming forward, and the case remains an open homicide.

Did anyone in the neighborhood know Macklin’s routine or see anything that could help bring his killer to justice?
