🔥 Top Scoops in Louisville, KY

A tobacco-related complaint alleges Jefferson County Sheriff's Office employees are smoking daily under a "NO SMOKING" sign at 515 W Market St. The report, filed against property owner 515 Building LLC, says the neighbor — who notes their mother died of lung cancer and never smoked — is frustrated because this is their third unresolved report. The case is open as an LMPHW tobacco investigation, so county inspectors may follow up to see if the smoking violates the local smoking ordinance.

LFD responded to a structure fire at 2713 Chickasaw Ave, where the building suffered heavy fire damage and a partial collapse. The owner is listed as Lorena Espinosa Revocable Living Trust, and a building inspector from the demolitions section has been asked to evaluate the property for possible emergency demolition.

Pure Peptide Pharma plans to add a lean-to for chemical storage at 1815 Taylor Ave on property owned by Lichtefeld Properties LLC, a commercial addition estimated at $34,000 to support peptide production. The record lists acetonitrile, isopropyl alcohol (IPA), and dimethylformamide arriving in 55‑gallon drums and stored per fire, building, and hazardous‑materials rules; licensed professional Tammy Goodlett is listed on the file, and a parking‑lot permit verification is pending before the building permit can be issued.
