In the quiet community of Gibson, Louisiana, the life of 68-year-old Roosevelt 'Rooster' Stewart Sr. was tragically cut short. On Saturday, June 13, 2015, the male resident of Terrebonne Parish was found deceased in the 5700 block of North Bayou Black Drive. An investigation by the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office determined that Stewart had been the victim of a fatal shooting.
In the days that followed, authorities identified two suspects in connection with the homicide. Arrest warrants for second-degree murder were secured for 26-year-old Kenny Wayne Veal and 29-year-old Carl Preston Hayes. At the time the warrants were issued, law enforcement officials considered both men to be armed and dangerous and sought the public's assistance in locating them. The trail of public information regarding any subsequent arrests, trials, or convictions in the death of Roosevelt Stewart Sr. grows cold from this point, leaving the ultimate resolution of the case unclear from available online sources.
