Late on March 1, 2020, 30-year-old Lamar Henry of Waveland, Mississippi, was brought to a hospital in Bay St. Louis with multiple gunshot wounds and pronounced dead. Initial reports placed the shooting in Gulfport, but investigators say the case unfolded across state lines.

Investigators report that Henry and 26-year-old Lamar Hargett drove to Slidell, Louisiana, intent on robbing a man identified as Trequan Rollins. Rollins allegedly spotted their vehicle near his Ash Drive residence, and a high-speed chase through Slidell followed. Gunfire was exchanged between the two cars, and Henry was fatally struck during the confrontation.

Hargett was arrested March 12, 2020, and charged with second-degree murder. Rollins was also detained March 12 on unrelated charges; an arrest warrant connecting him to Henry’s death led to booking on a series of charges including first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, illegal discharge of a firearm, and possession of a firearm by a felon on March 23.

If anyone has information about the events in Slidell that night or saw either vehicle, please share what you know.
