Im a coach for STM lacrosse, was a good player. He was a silent leader on the team led by example. As a coach it will be tough to make sure the kids move on. It's so strange because I live in that neighborhood now. Nothing ever remotely close has happened like this before in that part of town. R.I.P. Austin you will be missed dearly.

I don't think anyone knows that and even if they did, there's an investigation ongoing.

People are posting in the comments that the kids were trying to break into Fontenot's truck. Don't know if it's true or not, but it would make sense.
