On the evening of October 5, 2020, 29-year-old Michael Thomas of Washington was sitting in a parked truck on Cook Street in Morrow, Louisiana, with four other young men when a man approached the driver’s side and opened fire with a handgun in each hand. Thomas was struck and pronounced dead at the scene. Two other passengers were critically wounded: 20-year-old Ladarious Keller of Morrow later died at a hospital, and 19-year-old Emmerick Simon of Bunkie survived after surgery.

A fourth passenger, 21-year-old Ladrius LeBlanc of Lebeau, escaped without physical injury. Authorities later identified 48-year-old Sanplice Christopher Simien as the shooter; the motive was not immediately released.

Did anyone in the area see activity on Cook Street that night or know the victims’ movements before the shooting?
