A fifth victim of the Louisville bank shooting has died in hospital, police confirmed on Monday evening, as the company says there are 'no adequate words' to tell of their loss.
The death of Deana Eckert, 57, an executive administrative officer at the bank and a mother of two, was confirmed on Monday evening by Louisville police.
All five were senior executives at the bank.
Tommy Elliott, 63, a close friend of Governor Andy Beshear, was named among the dead, as were Joshua Barrick, 40; James 'Jim' Tutt, 64; and Juliana Farmer, 57.
They were declared dead at a press conference on Monday afternoon.
The five were shot dead by their former colleague Connor Sturgeon, 25, when he stormed a conference room at Old National Bank at 8.30am - half an hour before the branch opened to the public.
Jim Ryan, the CEO of the bank, said on Monday evening: 'There are no words to adequately describe the sadness and devastation that our Old National family is experiencing as we grieve the tragic loss of our team members and pray for the recovery of all those who were injured.'
Ryan continued: 'Obviously, this is an incredibly difficult situation, and our entire focus is on making sure that everyone affected has the support and assistance they need.
'On behalf of everyone at Old National, I also want to acknowledge and thank Louisville law enforcement, the medical community and state and local officials for their incredible response to this tragedy.
'And finally, we ask you to please continue to pray for all those affected.'

Democrats killing Democrats.
Sounds like every bigger city.
There are no words to describe the cruelty of this killer who calmly gunned down these innocent people while reportedly livestreaming the massacre.
So much pure evil in this world. Rest in peace to the poor victims.
A. Why was he fired from the bank? I must have missed it.
B. Why was he having multiple concussions back in junior high?
Did he have balance or inner ear problems?
Ditto
What an atypical shooter
He was either fired or knew he was about to be fired. I haven’t read the exact reason.
He wore a helmet when playing basketball because he was an all around athlete in high school and had so many concussions from football.
We’d be Switzerland crime stats except for black crime too
A) I've seen many reports including his getting fired, but none stating a reason.
B) He was very active in football and basketball. Until recently, if you seemed to recover ok after a whack, little more was thought of it unless significant symptoms developed.
Unknown SFAIK regarding balance or inner ear problems.
What kind of rifle did he use?
Time to not hire trannies.
Time to not even let them into your space.
Sheltering mental illness has huge risks.
Ironically, everytime a Democrat constituent does something like this, mostly Democrat politicians rush to the podium to blame “gun culture” which is a dog whistle to blame mostly Republican leaning constituents who had nothing to do with the crime.
Reason?...Democrats could not care less about stopping evil outbursts like this. These events are simply opportunities for them to demonize their opposition voters(usually us) and push towards us being disarmed for a Night of the Broken Glass type event.
Were they all white ???
Then sorry Joe and KarMarLar will not be rushing down there ...
School friends say he participated in various high school sports (basketball in particular). At least two have talked about the number of concussions (plural)...to the extent I think he had more than two or three.
You are correct on the reasoning for the firing. Young guy....hired via his connection with a frat group at Univ of Ala....at least one individual has said that. Sounds like it wasn’t just a ‘let-you-go’ situation...more like ‘you-will-go’.
I’ll just say from military time...having known two guys who had serious concussions...they were never the same. One guy flipped into bi-polar status within a year, and the other couldn’t do simple mathematical situations.
And yet so many people still refuse to carry weapons even in states that make it easy.
He was a leftist, not uncommon with Gen Z:
Hated…I mean dripping fire hate, laser eye hate for Trump
Hated Fox
Pro-jab
Democrat
Mocked conservatives
Anti gun then of course used one to massacre
So he is left but that doesn’t explain why he killed. Many as in 100s of thousands of Gen z are left and they don’t kill.
I would like to know the true leftist rate or % of mass shooters. I expect it’s very high.
All that being said this area of S Indiana is rocked, A lot of sad, confused and contemplative people around here now.
One of the women, who was killed was a Black woman, a new hire. Her uncle did an interview with the Daily Mail and said that it was a wonderful opportunity for her. My guess is, and it is only a guess, that the bank wanted to hire more minorities and that is why the shooter was fired. He was a White male.The bank was too White.
” Why was he having multiple concussions back in junior high?”
I believe, sports injuries.
