Jeffrey Maurice Bizzle, a 38-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in downtown Louisville in the early morning of June 1, 2023. Police were alerted by a gunshot detection system around 4:30 a.m. and found Bizzle at South First and Jacob Streets with multiple gunshot wounds. Officers and emergency medical personnel attempted life-saving measures, but Bizzle was pronounced dead. A funeral service was held for him on June 12 at Mount Olive Baptist Church.

For months the case remained unsolved while police sought public help. On March 21, 2024, Louisville Metro Police announced arrests in the homicide: Willetta A. Lewis, 30, and Timothy Deon Rayshawn Wright, 29, were charged with murder and first-degree robbery. Investigators say surveillance footage and witness identification linked the two to the scene, and a gun recovered during an unrelated arrest of the pair in September tested by ballistics matched the weapon used in Bizzle’s killing; police allege the incident began as a robbery in which Lewis stole items from Bizzle and Wright then shot him.

Does anyone have information about Bizzle’s movements that morning or saw activity around South First and Jacob Streets that could help clarify what happened?
