Park Hill community calling for witnesses to come forward after fatal shooting
A man was shot and killed inside the Farm Boy Convenience Store in the Park Hill neighborhood on Saturday.
As police are still searching for a suspect, a woman who was inside the store at the time of the shooting says she heard it all.
Eleigh Rose was cashing out at the register when she heard loud pops.
She immediately ran to the door.
On Monday, she felt the emotional and physical toll of it all.
"It's like my whole body, my back, my legs, my hands are very sore because I hit the door," said Rose.
She's calling on the violence to stop, after at least seven people were shot between Friday and Sunday around the metro.
In Louisville, there have been at least 40 homicides so far this year, with 35 victims killed by gunfire, according to the Louisville Metro Gun Violence Dashboard.
"This should be a message for people to be able to rethink and communicate with each other and come together," she said.
Police say a suspect allegedly fled the scene.
The name and age of the victim have not been released.
