Richard Chris Yeager, 35, was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds on the evening of September 22, 2014, in the 2800 block of Saint Louis Street in New Orleans. He was working as a Domino’s Pizza delivery driver and had just completed a delivery when he was discovered; he died at the scene. Investigators reported he had been shot 10 times and his vehicle was missing from the scene.

Police identified two teenage suspects in the case. A 16-year-old who was on electronic monitoring was placed at the scene by his ankle bracelet. Both teenagers were arrested. One teen, Rendell Brown, pleaded guilty and received a 40-year prison sentence. The other accused, Shane Hughes, was tried on second-degree murder and armed robbery charges; a jury found him not guilty of Yeager’s murder and acquitted him on a separate armed robbery charge, but the jury was unable to reach a verdict on the armed robbery count tied to Yeager’s death.

Are there witnesses or local residents who remember seeing a delivery vehicle or unusual activity on Saint Louis Street that night?
