A welfare check in the Russell neighborhood of Louisville turned into a homicide investigation when officers arrived at a home on the 2100 block of West Madison Street just after 8:30 p.m. on a Wednesday and found a man who had been shot. Emergency responders pronounced him dead at the scene. The coroner identified the victim as 58-year-old Rodney Bowman.

The Louisville Metro Police Department’s Homicide Unit opened an investigation immediately. Authorities have not released a motive, identified any suspects, or announced arrests. Investigators have asked the public to contact their anonymous tip line with any information.

If anyone knew Rodney Bowman or was in the area that evening, can you share anything that might help the investigation?
