Louisville – President David James (D-6) has issued the following statement after learning of the early morning shooting Thursday of a Jefferson County Sheriff’s Deputy in the Shively area:

“On behalf of the Metro Council, I offer our thoughts and prayers to those who are now in mourning following the death of Deputy Brandon Shirley. The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office is one of the many law enforcement partners we have in Metro Louisville who serve and protect our community.  Deputy Shirley answered the call to keep all of us safe and uphold the law. He leaves us at an age too young. This is a reminder of all the dangers faced by those who decide to wear a badge. We grieve with those who all knew him and pray for his family in their time of mourning. If anyone in our city knows who is responsible for this senseless act, please help LMPD and the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office bring this person to justice.”
