No bail for suspect in Mandina's fatal shooting

Kyron Fazande faces a second-degree murder charge in the fatal shooting of Hilbert Walker III in April.

NEW ORLEANS — A judge has refused bail to the man suspected of a shooting at Mandina's restaurant in Mid-City that left a waiter dead and a woman injured.

Kyron Fazande faces a second-degree murder charge in the fatal shooting of Hilbert Walker III in April.

Detectives say Fazande and another unknown suspect gunned down Walker, killing him and injuring a Chicago tourist when she was struck by a stray bullet while dining inside the famous Mid-City restaurant. Fazande also faces an Attempted Second-Degree Murder charge for the injured woman. 

Fazande was arrested near Houston where he is also accused of killing 15-year-old boy days after the Mandina's killing. Detectives have not yet said if they found a motive for Walker's murder. Fazande was extradited to New Orleans after several weeks in jail there. He is currently being held in the Orleans Parish prison without bond.
