Matthew Cetrone, a 40-year-old man from Slidell, Louisiana, was shot in the predawn hours of May 30, 2021, after gunfire erupted at a home in the 58000 block of Lynn Road. Deputies arriving just before 5 a.m. found him wounded and he was taken to a hospital, where he died of his injuries. He was described as White for this case.

Investigators say the shooting began when a relative inside the house, later identified as his cousin Christopher Aaron Burns, stepped outside firing multiple rounds. Cetrone reportedly went outside to see what was happening and was struck. Authorities described the circumstances that prompted the gunfire as unclear as the investigation unfolded.

Burns was arrested the same day and booked into the St. Tammany Parish Jail on a charge of second-degree murder. A grand jury later returned an indictment on August 18, 2021, charging Christopher Aaron Burns with second-degree murder and with possession of a Schedule II drug tied to the same date. If anyone knew Matthew or saw activity near Lynn Road that morning, what did you notice?
