Late on a December night in New Orleans, Floyd Richard Tapson, 50, of Slidell was found inside his pickup truck on Almonaster Avenue with a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene. His killing was not an isolated event that night. Investigators tied Tapson’s death to a violent home invasion that also left two other men, Jonathan Flee Hall, 27, and Delmar Noel Soto-Artega, 24, dead; two other people present survived the attack.

Authorities identified a 16-year-old, Cedrick Berryhill, as a suspect in the home invasion and the three murders. The case moved forward against that juvenile, but years later the final disposition of the murder charges remained unclear.

If anyone knew Tapson, Hall, Soto-Artega, or has information about the December incident on Almonaster Avenue, please come forward with what was seen or heard that night.
