On the early morning of December 7, 2019, 20-year-old Jacob Kerr was shot at a residence on Mid Dale Lane in the Klondike neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky. A man who arrived at the home shortly before 1 a.m. fired once into Kerr’s shoulder and chest. Kerr was transported to University Hospital and was pronounced dead at about 1:50 a.m.

Police say the shooter cleaned up a shell casing, removed the gun from the scene, and fled without rendering aid or calling for help. The Louisville Metro Police Department identified 22-year-old Lucius Adams as a suspect and arrested him on December 14, 2019, on charges that included murder, tampering with physical evidence, and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon; he was booked at Metro Corrections and held without bond.

Few details are public about motive or what led to the confrontation at the house. If anyone knew Jacob, lived in Klondike, or has information about the night of December 7, please come forward.
