Four killed, six injured in weekend shootings

It was a bloody weekend in Louisville, with police reporting six shooting victims, four of whom were killed.

Police had not identified any suspects in either of the shootings as of Sunday afternoon. Detectives working the cases do not believe the shootings are related, said Officer Carey Klain.

The latest occurred early Sunday on the 3400 block of Powell Avenue near Churchill Downs. When police arrived, they found the body of a man who was pronounced dead at the scene, Klain said.

There were two other shootings over the weekend, according to Klain:

•After getting a report of gunfire at about 5:15 p.m. Saturday, police found three young men, ages 15 to 19, shot in the 2600 block of Adrienne Way near Western High School. All three were taken by ambulance to University of Louisville Hospital, where one of them died.

•A couple was found shot to death in an Algonquin home in the 1800 block of West Hill Street, after reports of gunfire at about 4:20 a.m. Saturday. Aaron Combs, 30, and Julie Clemons, 28, were pronounced dead on the scene, said chief deputy coroner Jo-Ann Farmer.

The Homicide Unit is investigating the two deaths as a double homicide.

Klain said that anyone with information about any of the shootings is encouraged to call the department's anonymous police tip line, (502) 574-LMPD.
