In the vibrant city of New Orleans, the peaceful ambiance of a beautiful park has been shattered by tragedy. A 21-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the unsettling death of a 35-year-old individual in a shocking early morning incident.
The dramatic turn of events unfolded on February 22nd, around 7:07 a.m.. Authorities responded to reports of a shooting in the 1000 block of Harrison Avenue, nestled within the stunning landscape of City Park. Upon arrival, they discovered the lifeless body of Reynard Cennett, who succumbed to a gunshot wound, leaving the community reeling.
It quickly became apparent that Cennett’s vehicle had gone missing after the incident. After an intense investigation, law enforcement located the abandoned vehicle at the intersection of Mazant and North Roman streets, sparking a series of events that would lead to the capture of the suspect.
Fast forward to later that evening, around 7 p.m., and the police were hot on the trail of the suspect driving Cennett’s vehicle. Mckenzie Fair, the individual now facing serious charges, attempted to evade law enforcement. In a high-speed chase through the streets of New Orleans, Fair’s reckless driving ended when he crashed the vehicle.
Taking off on foot, he discarded a backpack during his hasty escape, which would prove to be a significant mistake. Officers recovered the backpack shortly after apprehending Fair, and what they found inside would add to the mounting evidence against him.
Within the backpack, investigators uncovered a firearm that was directly linked to the tragic homicide of Reynard Cennett. This pivotal piece of evidence bolstered the case against Fair and left little room for doubt about his involvement in the chilling crime.
Adding another layer to this harrowing story, investigators sifted through Fair’s cell phone records. These records confirmed his presence at the scene of the crime during the timeframe of the shooting, solidifying the allegations against him.
