On January 31, 2017, 18-year-old Joshua Lee Hodgens was found dead in the yard between two houses near Southwestern Parkway and River Park Drive in Louisville, Kentucky. He had sustained multiple gunshot wounds, and Louisville Metro Police were called shortly after 1 p.m. The Jefferson County Coroner’s Office later confirmed his identity and cause of death.

At the time the body was found the house next to the yard was vacant. Investigators canvassed the neighborhood and spoke with residents, but many reported hearing or seeing nothing out of the ordinary. Authorities did not name any suspects or announce arrests in the days after the killing, and the case was recorded as Louisville’s fifth homicide that year.

What information might help resolve this killing or who saw anything in that area on January 31, 2017?
