On the evening of Friday, March 24, 2023, 23-year-old Maliyah Daniel of Jeffersonville, Indiana, was found inside a room at the Motel 6 on Airport Hotels Boulevard in Louisville’s Edgewood neighborhood after a reported shooting. Louisville Metro Police responded at about 9 p.m.; Daniel had sustained a fatal gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office.

A Clarksville High School graduate, Daniel worked at a Cracker Barrel and was described by family as caring, independent, and devoted to her young son, Leland, and her mother. She enjoyed music and road trips and was remembered for her contagious smile. The Louisville Metro Police Homicide Unit opened an investigation and has asked the public for information; no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced.
