Lamont D. Porter Jr., a 28-year-old Black man and father of four, was killed in a drive-by shooting on September 12, 2020, in the Chickasaw neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky. He had been visiting family on Grand Avenue and was sitting in a car with his cousin when another vehicle pulled up and opened fire. Porter was fatally wounded; his cousin was also shot but survived.

Porter was the oldest of four siblings. His mother said he was killed just across the street from her home, a detail the family has said has made their grief especially painful. The killing was recorded as Louisville’s 115th homicide that year.

If anyone has information about the shooting or saw activity on Grand Avenue around September 12, 2020, please come forward to help Porter’s family seek answers.
