Nolan Greathouse, a 39-year-old Black husband and father of six from New Orleans, was fatally shot on September 21, 2024. Loved ones described him as an amazing man who deeply loved his family. That night he was among a group of people outside a bar in the 7th Ward when an altercation broke out. Witnesses and prosecutors say the dispute quickly escalated.

Authorities say following the initial conflict, a man identified as Larry Pounds, armed with a rifle, chased Greathouse down the 1600 block of Touro Street. Surveillance footage reportedly shows Greathouse fall to the ground and Pounds continuing to fire. Police who responded around 1 a.m. found Greathouse with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The New Orleans Police Department identified and charged Larry Pounds with second-degree murder after investigators matched surveillance footage to an identification photograph and other information.

Anyone with information about the shooting on Touro Street or who knew Nolan is asked to come forward.
