Trenelle Major Collins, 55, of St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, was shot and killed at a home in the 2200 block of Centanni Drive on the evening of April 5, 2026. Deputies say the violence began as an argument that escalated; deputies found both Collins and her mother, Mary Major, shot. Both women were taken to a hospital and died.

Sheriff James Pohlmann said the confrontation appears to have started between Collins and her 22-year-old son, Lee Collins III. Investigators reported that the younger Collins briefly left, returned with a gun and fired on both women, then allegedly fired at his father and missed. The suspect fled in a white 2019 Ford stake-bed truck stolen from a nearby business; the weapon was not recovered at the scene.

Mobile police arrested Lee Collins III in Alabama on April 6, and authorities identified him as the sole suspect facing two counts of second-degree murder and an attempted murder allegation regarding his father. No trial outcome or conviction has been reported. Does anyone have information about the family or the events that led up to this shooting?
