We are shocked and saddened by the senseless tragedy that unfolded at Old National Bank in downtown Louisville earlier this week. We join the nation in mourning the loss of the victims and extend our heartfelt condolences to their loved ones and our entire community. ❤️

One of the victims was very close to our hearts. Tommy Elliott, the bank’s Sr. Vice President, joined the American Heart Association Board of Directors in Kentuckiana in 1997 and volunteered for more than 20 years, even serving as Board Chair during that time. He was a loyal supporter and passionate advocate and always graced the room with his smile. We’re forever grateful that Tommy chose to share his time, talent and treasure with us, and will continue to honor his memory through the work we do.

Naloxone is a medication that rapidly reverses the effects of opioid overdose and is the standard treatment for opioid overdose.

Today’s action paves the way for the life-saving medication to reverse an opioid overdose to be sold directly to consumers in places like drug stores, convenience stores, grocery stores and gas stations, as well as online.
