Arnold Matute-Vasquez, 22, was killed in a drive-by shooting after a bar fight in Kenner. The dispute began inside a local bar on February 16, 2019; Matute-Vasquez and the person he had fought with were both removed from the establishment. Shortly after leaving, a vehicle pursued the car carrying Matute-Vasquez and multiple shots were fired into that vehicle, striking and killing him.

Kenner Police identified and arrested an 18-year-old male in connection with the killing. Investigators say the suspect confessed and that the shooting was motivated by the earlier altercation at the bar.

If anyone was in or near the bar that night or has information about the pursuit that followed, please share what you know.
