On the night of August 11, 2010, two men were shot and killed in Louisville’s Parkland neighborhood. Pernell Antonio Dillard Sr., 30, and his childhood friend John Beamus, 32, were together in the front yard of Beamus’s home on 28th Street when both were fatally shot. Beamus used a wheelchair and had been confined to it since age 13 after a prior shooting; Dillard was a father of four and is remembered as a beloved son and brother.

Louisville Metro Police investigated the double homicide and asked the large crowd near the scene for help identifying whoever was responsible. Despite that appeal, the case grew cold: no suspects were publicly named and no arrests were announced. The motive for the shooting remains unclear.

If anyone who lived in Parkland or was near 28th Street that night remembers unusual activity or has information about either victim, please share what can help bring answers.
