On 7/19/2025 at approximately 12:10pm there was a report of a shooting on Maravian Dr. in the 3rd Division. Officer Watts was first on scene within 1 minute of being dispatched and Officer Costello arrived 45 seconds later. Officer Watts assessed the patient and began to provide first aid to the victim. Officers Watts & Costello immediately used their training assessing the victim and quickly addressing the injuries. They applied 2 tourniquets, one to his leg and one to his arm. They applied 2 chest seals to the multiple torso wounds and packed the head wound. EMS immediately took over and praised the officers for them arriving on scene quickly and immediately starting first aid and life saving measures. These officers stayed calm in a situation where a large crowd was starting to form within a few feet of them working on the victim. The officers' quick actions resulted in life saving and life sustaining care of the victim who was in critical condition at the time. Both officers have been nominated for the Distinguished Life-Saving Award.

 A transportation planning study now underway in Jefferson County will evaluate potential improvements to KY 1065 (Outer Loop) between Interstate 65 and KY 2052 (Shepherdsville Road). The study, dubbed the Outer Loop Transportation Study, will identify short-term and long-term highway safety and mobility enhancements for the roughly three-mile corridor.
This study includes a full analysis of existing conditions along the corridor that will be used to develop practical solutions and improvement concepts to enhance safety, ease congestion, and improve traffic flow. The study area spans three miles across KY 1065 (Outer Loop) from Minors Lane, over I-65 and through the KY 61 (Preston Highway) intersection to KY 2052 (Shepherdsville Road).
As the study transitions into the public involvement phase, the Outer Loop Transportation Study invites citizens to attend a public meeting Wednesday, Sept.10, to gather information on existing conditions and provide feedback. The public meeting will be an open-house event held from 5 p.m. to 7p.m. at the South Central Regional Library, 7300 Jefferson Boulevard, Louisville, KY 40219. (This meeting is not sponsored or endorsed by the Louisville Free Public Library.)
Those who are interested may drop in any time to receive handouts containing information and to provide comments regarding the project. Representatives from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and the project team will be in attendance to answer questions.
Surveys will be available at the meeting for the public to provide written feedback directly to the project team. The survey will also be available online following the public meeting at: bit.ly/OuterLoopStudy. Comments regarding the plan will be accepted until Friday, Oct.10, 2025 and may be mailed to the KYTC District 5 Office at 8310 Westport Road, Louisville, KY, 40242.
Following the public meeting, displays and materials will be available for review at the KYTC District 5 Office. Office hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Feedback will be accepted until Oct. 10.
