Police: 1 dead after shooting on Fern Valley Rd.

It happened in a parking lot outside of a Zaxby's restaurant around 7 p.m. Wednesday.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — One person is dead after a shooting in Louisville's Newburg neighborhood Wednesday night.

It happened in a parking lot outside of a Zaxby's restaurant  on Fern Valley Rd. around 7 p.m.

When officers arrived, they located a man who had been shot. He died at the scene.

LMPD spokesperson Dwight Mitchell said they believe all parties involved have been accounted for.

"One thing we cannot legislate is morality. We can't do that. There's no law that's passed that makes me love you or you love me. That has to be something within your heart that you do. Otherwise we'll continue to have this. But I'm hopeful that someday this will be curbed and we're going to continue to do our jobs," Mitchell said.
