Patrick Lloyd Prosper Jr., 24, was found dead inside a vehicle recovered from a lagoon at Joseph Bartholomew Golf Course in New Orleans. The car was discovered submerged on Monday, April 28, 2025; when it was pulled from the water, Prosper’s body was inside. The Orleans Parish Coroner’s Office later determined the cause of death to be a gunshot wound and ruled the death a homicide.

Officials with the New Orleans Police Department have released few details publicly, and there have been no announcements of arrests or named suspects. The circumstances surrounding how Prosper’s vehicle came to be submerged and who was responsible for the shooting remain unresolved.

Does anyone have information about Patrick, the golf course area on or around April 28, 2025, or sightings that could help investigators?
