An “active aggressor” was on the loose in downtown Louisville on Monday morning as police reported “multiple casualties” and urged the public to stay away from the area.

A flood of police cars, ambulances and fire trucks to Main Street, between North Floyd and North Preston Streets, in the middle of Kentucky’s largest city.

The incident unfolded in the shadows of Slugger Field, home of the Cincinnati Reds triple-A affiliate, the Louisville Bats.

“There is an active police situation downtown,” Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg said in a statement. “Please avoid the area around Slugger Field until further notice.”
