Just after midnight on October 29, 2024, Louisville Metro Police responded to a shooting at an apartment complex in the 5500 block of Eight Bells Lane in the Valley Station neighborhood. Officers and EMS found 34-year-old Montrez Boyington inside a unit with multiple gunshot wounds. First aid was given at the scene, but Boyington was pronounced dead there; the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office later attributed his death to those wounds.

The case has been turned over to the LMPD Homicide Unit, which is investigating the circumstances and seeking a motive. As of late October 2024, no suspects had been publicly identified and no arrests were reported. The department is asking anyone with information to contact its anonymous tip line.

If anyone heard or saw anything in the area that night or has information about Montrez Boyington’s death, please share what you know with investigators.
