LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The Louisville Metro Police Department is investigating after a man was found shot and killed overnight in West Buechel.

Police say the man was found on Paragon Court which is off of Bashford Manor Lane, just south of the Watterson Expressway.

According to police, when officers arrived at the scene the man was pronounced dead having sustained multiple gunshot wounds.

LMPD says there are no suspects at this time, but ask that if you have any information regarding this case to call their anonymous tip line at 502-574-LMPD (5673). 

"The gun violence in this city," said LMPD Maj. Mindy Vance. "Obviously it's very disheartening. I hate to hear it. And we're doing everything that we can, and again, you just hate to hear it. And hope that we can make a dent it this."

Another man was killed in a separate shooting overnight Friday. Police found his body in the parking lot of a Parkland laundry mat.
