In the Russell neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky, the life of 25-year-old Shironda Ashley Harrison Adams, a Black female, was tragically cut short on the night of March 26, 2023. Around 11:15 p.m., Louisville Metro Police responded to a shooting on West Madison Street where they found Ms. Harrison and a man with gunshot wounds. Shironda was pronounced dead at the scene, while the male victim was transported to a local hospital.
Born on October 7, 1997, to Jerome Harrison Sr.
and Ivy Johnson, Shironda was known for her free spirit and generous nature. She had a deep love for music and dance, but her greatest passion was her three children: sons Jarrion and Lamontre Maddox, and daughter Raelynn Payton. She was a beloved wife to Patrick Adams, and a cherished sister, niece, and friend to many.
The Louisville Metro Police Department's Homicide Unit is actively investigating the shooting. However, there have been no suspects publicly identified, and no arrests have been made in connection with her death. The case remains unsolved as authorities continue to seek information from the public to bring justice for Shironda and her grieving family.
