Local Motorcycle Club Member on Trial

According to the digital edition of the Fall River Herald News, the night when  two rival motorcycle clubs clashed outside a local Bedford Street bar in Fall River that turned violent and deadly was it was all caught on surveillance video. On trial is 28 year old Joseph “JoJo” Noe, of Taunton, who is facing one count of murder and two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon with serious bodily harm associated with the shooting outside of JC’s Café in September 2019. Noe, a member of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club, is accused of killing 39-year-old Oak Bluffs resident Eric Voshell, a member of the Sidewinders Motorcycle Club. Voshell died at Rhode Island Hospital after being shot in the back of the head with two bullets after Noe shot five rounds from his licensed 38 caliber handgun. Also injured in the shooting was Troy Parker, another member of the Sidewinders, who prosecutors Guilderson and Michael Cahillane said was shot in the shoulder. Brian Andruk, an Outlaws member and Noe’s friend, was also injured after a bullet grazed his head. Jury selection in the case against Noe began on Monday and a jury seated on Tuesday with the start of the trial on Wednesday.

 

Over the course of the three days, there was a noticeable uptick in Fall River police officers around the Fall River Justice Center. Before opening arguments and before the jury was brought in for the start of the trial, Fall River Superior Court Judge Raffi Yessayan warned the roughly few dozen family and friends at the trial in support of both Noe and Voshell, against wearing any motorcycle club “colors.”
