St. Charles sheriff asks help finding man in bar shooting

HAHNVILLE (AP) — St. Charles Parish Sheriff Greg Champagne is asking for help finding a man accused of killing a Texas man and shooting another man in a Hahnville bar.
He says deputies have a warrant to arrest 35-year-old Larry Thompson of Boutte on charges of second-degree murder and aggravated battery.
Thompson allegedly killed 23-year-old David Scott, of Houston, and shot someone else in the foot at an establishment police identify as Butt Cuts Bar. A news re-lease says Thompson and Scott had argued about a woman.
Champagne says Thompson should be considered armed and dangerous, and may be driving a 2013 Chevrolet Impala with Louisiana license XSN832.
Champagne asks anyone who knows about the shooting or Thompson’s whereabouts to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111 or Detective Lance Richards at 985-783-1135 or 985-783-6807.
