Cold Case Spotlight

April Savoy Scheidel, a mother of three never made it home from the truck ride she took with two acquaintances into New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward, just before Easter 2003. Police said the trio got into an argument when a gunman opened fire on the pickup. Scheidel, who was shot in the back, died at Charity Hospital a short time later. In June of 2003, police arrested Tremell Armstead, 25, in connection with Scheidel's murder. But at a magistrate court hearing, his attorney argued that Armstead, a man with convictions for drug possession and a weapons charge, was at the scene of his cousin's murder the same night Scheidel was killed. Several witnesses testified on Armstead's behalf. By August, prosecutors had decided not to seek formal charges, citing "evidence problems." Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the New Orleans Police Department at (504) 658-5300. Or you can call Crime Stoppers at (504) 822-1111 and possibly be eligible for a reward up to $2,500.
