On the evening of May 15, 2017, a burst of gunfire in Algiers, New Orleans, left 24-year-old Roy Noel dead and two others wounded in a triple shooting. Noel, known as Peppa Bean, was a Marrero native who lived in Gretna and was a father, son, brother, and grandson whose obituary described a young man loved by many.

Emergency crews pronounced Noel dead at the scene from gunshot wounds. The New Orleans Police Department opened an investigation, but no public announcements about suspects or arrests have been reported and the motive remains unclear.

Does anyone in Algiers or the surrounding communities have information that could help bring answers for Noel’s family?
