The man shot to death outside a Louisville community college building on Monday has been identified as the suspects remain on the loose, according to officials and local reports.

The Jefferson County Coroner’s Office identified the victim as 24-year-old Chea’von Moore, of Louisville, WDRB-TV reported. 

Moore died of multiple gunshot wounds after the shooting unfolded around 11:30 a.m. at the corner of South 8th Street and West Chestnut Streets outside the Jefferson Community and Technical College/Technical Campus. His death was ruled a homicide, WLKY-TV reported, citing the coroner’s office.

The shooting erupted just hours after a separate incident involving an active shooter who walked into an Old National Bank location in the city and opened fire, killing five and wounding eight others. The shooter in that incident was also killed.
