Police: Suspect Said They Wanted to Kill 'White Person'
By Michael Katz | Wednesday, 10 May 2023 10:35 PM EDTPolice in Louisiana said a racial component might have been the motive behind the drive-by fatal shooting of a handyman in early April.
Lawrence Herr, a 66-year-old white man, was killed April 10 while installing a mailbox outside a home in Kenner, La., a suburb of New Orleans. Tahj Matthews, 23, and Maurice Holmes, 25, who are Black, were arrested the next day and charged with first-degree murder.
Matthews and Holmes are being held at the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center. A first-degree murder charge does not allow suspects to have bond, but the suspects’ defense attorneys filed a motion to reduce bond. That motion was denied during a hearing Tuesday.
At the hearing, the lead detective on the case, Nick Engler, was asked why Matthews and Holmes targeted Herr. Engler said that under questioning, Matthews said they "wanted to kill a white person," WWL-TV reported.
