On the night of Wednesday, May 21, 2025, a single gunshot at a home on Legion Way in Northbridge, Massachusetts, left 36-year-old Jonathan Scott Lacour dead. Police arrived shortly after 11 p.m. and found Jonathan with a fatal wound; an early investigative account noted a possible accidental discharge of a firearm.

Jonathan, described as a gentle, unassuming cook who enjoyed fishing, reading and listening to Pink Floyd, worked at Kapi’s Restaurant in Uxbridge and studied Culinary Arts at Blackstone Valley Regional Technical High School. His younger brother, 33-year-old Christopher Lacour, was arrested at the scene and initially charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon; his license to carry the involved firearm was suspended and he was released on bail after arraignment in Uxbridge District Court.

After an autopsy and further investigation by Northbridge Police and State Police detectives, a Worcester County grand jury returned an indictment upgrading the charge against Christopher to manslaughter, and the case was moved to Worcester Superior Court. Does anyone have information about Jonathan’s movements that evening or about the household on Legion Way?
