LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A man has been identified hours after he was shot and killed outside Wilder Park Circle K gas station.
Stephon Garner, 37, died after suffering multiple gunshot wounds.
Garner was found in the parking lot of the business located in the 4300 block of South Third Street around 3:30 a.m. Saturday.
He was taken to the UofL Hospital where he later died.
According to arrest records, a witness at the scene spotted a woman who shot Garner multiple times and left the scene in a car. The woman, 26-year-old Coretta Hale, came back to the scene and allegedly told officers “It’s me. I shot him.”
Police said Hale matched the description of the suspect captured on surveillance video.
Circle K confirmed to WHAS11 News that Hale was an employee of the business and was working Friday night.
According to Hale's former coworkers, Garner was banned from the property after spitting in Hale's face.
Police said Hale did not have the murder weapon when turning herself in.
Hale is currently booked at Metro Corrections.
The victim, Stephon Garner, is the same man convicted of manslaughter in 2018.
