Thernell Simon, a Black man reported as either 29 or 38, died in New Orleans on December 11, 2021.

An obituary names a Thernell Simon, age 38, and lists surviving family members; a national gun violence memorial records a Thernell Simon, age 29, as killed by gun violence in New Orleans on the same date. The discrepancy in age and in cause of death leaves key details unresolved. If anyone knew Thernell or has information about what happened on December 11, 2021, please share what is known.
