Walter Hebert was a 75-year-old Black man from New Orleans whose life ended in violence on May 12, 2017. The killing occurred along the 2200 block of North Claiborne Avenue in the Seventh Ward of Orleans Parish. Beyond the date and location, very little has been publicly shared about the circumstances of his death or what led him to that specific spot that morning.

No suspect has been publicly identified, and no arrest or charges have been reported. The lack of detail about his final moments leaves unanswered questions for anyone who knew him and for neighbors who remember him passing by. His family and community lost more than a life; they lost the clarity that comes with knowing what happened and why.

If anyone knew Walter, his routines, or saw something on May 12, 2017 that could help, please come forward with information.
