LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville Metro police have made an arrest in a homicide from earlier this week.
Police said the Homicide Unit arrested 23-year-old Coreleion Toogood Friday in connection to the Sept. 25 homicide in the Russell neighborhood.
Officers started their investigation Monday, after a woman was found dead inside an apartment in the 1800 block of West Jefferson. Police previously said they suspected foul play.
According to an arrest citation, authorities found no sign of forced entry and no firearms were found on or around the victim. However, there was a bullet hole found in the front windowpane of the home.
During an autopsy, a bullet was found in the woman’s body and her cause of death was ruled a homicide.
Court documents said that Toogood’s vehicle was seen on video footage where gunfire was observed coming from his vehicle. He admitted to driving the vehicle at the time and place of the shooting, and being the only person in the vehicle.
The woman's identity has not been released.
Toogood is charged with one count of murder in the homicide. LMPD said he was also charged with unrelated traffic offenses of reckless driving and operating on a suspended or revoked license.
He is currently being held on a $100,000 cash bond.
