George Young, a 65-year-old Black man from Marrero, Louisiana, was fatally shot on July 21, 2023, when gunfire tore through a home in the Lincolnshire subdivision. Deputies were called to the 6700 block of Mather Drive about 6:40 p.m. and found four people inside—three men and one woman—each suffering at least one gunshot wound. Young was taken to a hospital but died; the three other victims survived with injuries described as not life-threatening.

In the first hours investigators reported no suspect and no clear motive. The investigation continued through the following months. By June 2024 authorities announced an arrest identified only by the surname Johnson; officials did not disclose how that person was identified. In August 2024 the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office publicly sought a Marrero man named Gerald Lampkin in connection with the same shooting, with allegations including first-degree murder, three counts of attempted first-degree murder, and obstruction of justice.

If anyone in the Lincolnshire subdivision that night remembers details or saw activity on Mather Drive around 6:30–7:00 p.m., please share what was observed with investigators.
