A domestic shooting in New Albany left a 24-year-old man dead and a neighbor wounded. Antonio Bautista was fatally shot on April 15, 2025, near Wolfe Trace Court and Wolfe Trace. Officers arriving around 8:10 p.m. found Antonio suffering from gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police arrested his 19-year-old brother, Andres Bautista, at the scene and charged him with murder and aggravated battery. Investigators say the shooting followed an altercation between the siblings. Andres told witnesses and police that he shot Antonio because he was trying to rob him and that he feared for his life. Officers report Antonio was shot twice, once in the face and once in the back of the head, and no weapon was found near his body.

A 70-year-old woman walking her dog was struck by a stray bullet and taken to a Louisville hospital in stable condition. Security camera footage reportedly shows Andres leaving and returning to his home just before and after multiple gunshots; he is heard telling others to call police and saying he had killed his brother. The case is with Floyd County prosecutors.
