Louisiana police have arrested a third suspect in connection with Super Bowl reporter Adan Manzano’s hotel room murder.

Manzano, a 27-year-old sports reporter for Telemundo based in Kansas City, Missouri, was on assignment in New Orleans to cover Super Bowl LIX. He was discovered deceased with Xanax in his system at the Comfort Suites hotel in Kenner, Louisiana, on the morning of Feb. 5.

Authorities stated that his death was due to the combined toxic effects of Xanax and alcohol, pointing out that he was found “face-down in a pillow with no lividity around his nose and mouth.” Since the incident, Kenner police have apprehended Danette Colbert, 48, known as the “Bourbon Street Hustler,” and her alleged accomplice, Ricky White, in connection to Manzano’s death.

On Friday, Kenner police further announced the arrest of Christian Anderson, 33, a resident of New Orleans, for his purported role in the scheme that resulted in Manzano’s death.

Records also allegedly show that “Anderson and Colbert communicated extensively following the incident, and that he played a role in the group’s recurring criminal behavior,” Kenner police said.

Colbert was recently sentenced to serve 25 years in prison for crimes unrelated to Manzano’s death, including theft, computer fraud and illegal transmission of monetary funds stemming from a 2024 case.

Police are asking anyone with information about Colbert to come forward. Some victims, Conley said, do not speak up, due to the sensitive nature of the suspect’s alleged crimes.

Authorities executed a search warrant at Colbert’s address after identifying her as a potential suspect in connection with Manzano’s death and said they had located a stolen gun that did not appear to be related to Manzano’s death and narcotics.
