On the evening of January 7, 2021, 20-year-old Shyron Jackson was shot and killed on the 3200 block of Larkwood Avenue in the Shawnee neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky, at about 5:45 p.m. The Jefferson County Coroner’s Office determined he died of multiple gunshot wounds.

Jackson’s family described him as motivated, determined and the life of the party — goofy, adventurous, competitive and devoted to the children in his life, including nieces, nephews and young cousins. His shooting occurred within minutes of another nearby attack less than a mile away on Cecil Avenue that killed 46-year-old Duan Calloway and wounded another person, a sequence that alarmed the community and prompted a Louisville Metro Police Department investigation.

No suspects have been publicly identified in Jackson’s killing and the case remains open. If anyone knew Shyron or has information about what happened that evening, please come forward to assist the investigation.
