A man has been charged with murder in Louisiana after allegedly killing a Rochester Hills man and assaulting his wife this past week, posing as a DTE worker to get into the home. The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office announced via social media that Carlos Hernandez has been charged with murder, among other charges, in regards to this incident. According to a press release, Hernandez has been charged by prosecutors with felony murder and two counts of unlawful imprisonment. If convicted, Hernandez faces life in prison. Hernandez was taken into custody earlier this weekend, in Shreveport, Louisiana. Detectives are still searching for the second suspect. The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office said this happened on Newcastle Drive near Adams and Dutton roads earlier this week. On Saturday, the sheriff’s office identified the victim as 72-year-old Hussein Murray. Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard says the two men, who had a white pickup truck with a DTE placard, rolled up to the house Thursday night and tried to get in but were denied.
