LaQuan Shante MooCat Whitfield, 30, was shot and killed inside a home in Slaughter, Louisiana, on Sunday, November 26, 2017. Gunfire in the house also killed Whitfield’s boyfriend, Gerald Tate, and Tate’s father, Gerald Parker. A witness said a shot was first heard in the front room where Parker was killed, then the shooter ran down a hallway toward a bedroom where Whitfield and Tate were shot.

Investigators said the violence began when Taurus Ike Hamilton of Zachary allegedly forced his way into the Slaughter home and opened fire. Authorities tied Hamilton to a separate fatal shooting about half an hour earlier outside a gas station in Zachary, where a 24-year-old man was killed after a fight. Hamilton was located and arrested in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and his mother, Belinda Hamilton Folse, was arrested and accused of being an accessory after the fact.

Whitfield was a native of Ethel, a resident of Zachary, and a Winn-Dixie employee who left behind a young child. Does anyone have information about Whitfield, the events that night, or what led to the shootings?
