Isaiah C. White, 44, was shot and killed inside his vehicle on Dixie Highway near West Hill Street in the Algonquin neighborhood of Louisville at about 2:45 a.m. on May 4, 2025. Responding officers found White grievously wounded; he was pronounced dead at the scene and his vehicle subsequently crashed into a medical office in the 1600 block of Dixie Highway.

Within a day police arrested 48-year-old Jack Elliott of Louisville and charged him with murder. Investigators say surveillance footage showed Elliott’s car following White to a parking lot where four spent shell casings were later recovered, and Elliott made a recorded statement admitting he was at the scene. A judge set Elliott’s bond at $500,000, describing him as a danger to the community. No motive has been released.

Friends and family remembered White, also known as Fat Courtney, as kind, generous and someone who liked to joke and watch out for people he cared about. Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
