A family gathering on Delta Place Road in New Roads, Louisiana, on September 17, 2021, ended in multiple shootings that killed 25-year-old Gerell Deshawn Hollins. Hollins, produced a firearm and shot Gerell nine times, killing him at the scene. Another cousin, Howard Hollins, was fatally shot in the back while trying to flee, and Gerell’s father, Gregory Hollins, was wounded by a gunshot to the hip. A stray bullet also struck a neighboring home.

Law enforcement had reportedly been called to the residence earlier that evening because of ongoing arguments. Three days later, on September 20, 2021, Morris J. Hollins surrendered and was arrested on multiple charges, including two counts of second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder.

Did anyone know the Hollins family or witness the incident or the events leading up to it?
