Summary
Federal prosecutors charged 48-year-old Clarence A. Frazier Jr. with murdering Deputy U.S. Marshal Drew Hanson after the July 13 shooting in Alexandria, Louisiana.
Officers were serving an arrest warrant tied to Frazier's prior sexual battery case when he allegedly barricaded himself in a bedroom and opened fire after they forced entry.
Hanson was struck during the exchange and later died, while Frazier was taken into custody after a lengthy standoff at the home.
The killing followed earlier reports that the FBI was investigating the fatal shooting of a federal officer during the warrant operation with the Rapides Parish Sheriff's Office.
