The person who shot and killed former NFL running back Joe McKnight is a free man. Police released 54-year-old Ronald Gasser Thursday night, just hours after he gunned down McKnight in an alleged road rage incident in Terrytown, Louisiana just outside of New Orleans. Gasser’s release has sparked outrage throughout the New Orleans area and the nation. According to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office, Gasser and McKnight had a “heated” verbal exchange after one of the men cut the other off in traffic. Things came to a tragic head when Gasser drew his semi-automatic handgun, shooting McKnight multiple times. Want more Roland Martin?
