Early on April 18, 2024, two men were shot dead in the Central City neighborhood of New Orleans. Police responded to a shooting call about 4:20 a.m. in the 4000 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and found 21-year-old Dalton Reeder and his 71-year-old father, Douglas Patterson, both with gunshot wounds. Both men were pronounced dead at the scene; one was found in a driveway.

A 22-year-old man identified as Ronell Reeder surrendered at the NOPD Second District station shortly after the discovery. After questioning, he was arrested and charged with two counts of second-degree murder and booked into the Orleans Parish Justice Center. Investigators determined him to be the perpetrator in the incident.

Are there witnesses or neighbors from that block who can add details about what happened that morning?
