LUTCHER — A Denham Springs man was killed in a Lutcher shooting over the weekend, St. James Parish deputies said.
Damon Summerlin, 19, and a 17-year-old, both from the Denham Springs area, were both found with gunshot wounds in the parking lot of Regions Bank in Lutcher around 11:05 p.m. on Saturday.
The two were taken to the hospital to be treated, but Summerlin died. The teenager was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
Summerlin's family has created a GoFundMe to help with funeral expenses.
"Damon was a bright, caring young man who meant the world to all of us. His absence leaves a void that can never be filled, and our family is struggling to come to terms with this heartbreaking loss," Summerlin's aunt Deanna Savoy said on the GoFundMe.
