Man shot to death outside of Louisville home identified
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - A man shot to death outside of a Louisville home has been identified.
Joseph Armstrong, 20, was shot near the corner of Montana Avenue and Weller Avenue around 5:45 p.m., Thursday, according to the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office.
Louisville Metro Police Department spokeswoman Alicia Smiley said Armstrong had several gunshot wounds when he was found and died before he could be brought to the hospital.
