A Saturday night shooting in May 2017 in the 400 block of North Laurel Street, Metairie, left Leonard White dead and another man wounded. Deputies from the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office found White with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. A 33-year-old Metairie man was also struck but survived.

Authorities arrested Norman G Johnson within days, alleging he was the gunman. Johnson was on parole at the time and was booked on charges related to White’s murder and the injury to the other victim. Reports conflicted about White’s age: law enforcement initially listed him as 38 and a River Ridge resident, while an obituary gave his age as 28.
