Adan Manzano, a 27-year-old television reporter from Telemundo Kansas City, was found dead in his hotel room in Kenner, Louisiana, while covering the Super Bowl. Police arrested Danette Colbert, 48, and charged her with multiple felonies, including fraud and theft, after she was seen on security footage with Manzano before his death. Colbert allegedly used Manzano's credit card and authorities found his belongings at her residence. The coroner's office is investigating the cause of death.
Police are investigating the death of a television reporter who was in New Orleans to cover the Super Bowl and on Friday announced the arrest of a woman they say used his credit card.
She also faces a state felony charge of possession of a stolen firearm, but Kenner Police do not believe it’s related to Manzano’s case, St. Tammany Sheriff’s Office Lt. Suzanne Carboni said. A phone number affiliated with Colbert’s residence was disconnected and no one responded to a message sent to an email associated with her.
