On the evening of June 8, 2021, 33-year-old Donnie LaVelle Fitch Jr. was fatally shot on South 24th Street in Louisville’s California neighborhood. The attack was a double shooting; a woman was also wounded and survived. The Louisville Metro Police Department classified the case as an open homicide and investigated the scene, but did not publicly disclose what led to the shooting.

Fitch was born October 22, 1987, and was a father to three children. In October 2021 police released surveillance footage showing a man of interest with multiple arm tattoos, a possible teardrop tattoo near one eye, and a gait that may indicate a limp. No arrests in connection with Fitch’s death had been announced as of the last update.

Anyone with information about the June 8 shooting or the person seen in the released footage is asked to contact investigators.
