On the evening of September 10, 2020, 17-year-old Frank A. Bedell III was fatally shot outside a home in New Orleans’ Gentilly neighborhood after a gathering at which music was being recorded. Two other young men, 19-year-old Haushon Kareem Miller Jr. and 19-year-old Khalil Ausbia Allen, were also killed; a man and a woman were wounded. A resident said she heard about a dozen gunshots and that it sounded as if someone leaving the house returned fire. One of the victims was found dead on the resident’s porch.

Police arrested a 15-year-old male after he was seen fleeing the scene; he was initially charged with a weapons offense and later charged with three counts of second-degree murder and attempted murder for the wounded victims. Nineteen-year-old Maurice Lumar was arrested with the teenager on weapons charges but has not been publicly identified as a suspect in the killings. Frank’s family remembered him as La Frank 5 and held a funeral service later that month.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or knew Frank and his friends that could help clarify what happened that night?
