Ronald Gasser, the man authorities say shot and killed Joe McKnight during an apparent road-rage incident in Terrytown, has been indicted on one count of second-degree murder, the Jefferson Parish District Attorney's Office announced Thursday (Feb. 2).

Gasser, 55, was originally arrested Dec. 5 on a manslaughter charge, four days after the shooting.

"Subsequent to that arrest, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office and the Jefferson Parish District Attorney's Office continued working together in a collaborative effort to develop additional evidence regarding the case," a release from District Attorney Paul Connick states.

Judge June Darensburg increased Gasser's bond from $500,000 to $750,000 following the indictment. If convicted, he faces a life sentence without the possibility of parole, probation or suspended sentence.
