According to local authorities, a Louisiana father was killed after a teenager who had been ordered to stay away from his 14-year-old daughter allegedly sneaked through her bedroom window with a ladder and shot him during a fight.
Nicholas Mcquirter, 17, is accused of shooting Dezmon Hamilton, 34, multiple times, according to the Zachary Police Department. The two traded gunfire, according to authorities, and the suspect was also injured.
Mcquirter is charged with second-degree murder, illegal use of a weapon, and possession of a stolen firearm. He was hospitalized in critical condition. A snapshot of the booking was not immediately available. He is anticipated to be formally arrested once he is released from the hospital, according to police. On Wednesday evening, he was not included on the parish jail roster.
Following Hamilton’s discovery of the teen in his home, the girl’s mother and grandmother escorted the 14-year-old to the side of the house to speak with her, according to McDavid. Mcquirter and Hamilton got into a fight as an outcome of this.
