Louis, attended St. Stanislaus and local schools, and worked for Richie Santiago and King Waste Co. Family and friends remember his generosity, big smile and close ties to his family.The investigation led officers to Brendin Pitts of Carriere, who was found a few blocks from the scene and taken into custody. Pitts was charged with one count of murder and booked into the Hancock County Jail on a $1 million bond. The motive for the argument that preceded the shooting has not been released and the case remains under investigation.Have any readers who knew Lionel or who were in the St.

George Street area that morning come forward with information for investigators?
