Family members and activists in Louisville’s protest community have identified Travis Nagdy, 21, as the man killed early Monday on Crittenden Drive.

Nagdy was active in the summer’s Black Lives Matter protests over the police killing of Breonna Taylor. His family is raising money for Nagdy’s funeral. On Monday, other protesters, elected officials and community activists were remembering Nagdy for his voice and leadership.

According to a Louisville Metro Police press release, officers found Nagdy shot on the 2100 block of Crittenden Drive around 12:25 a.m. They have not released other details.
