A man was killed in a shooting Sunday morning in the Central Business District, the New Orleans Police Department says.

Reddit post has the real details. fricked up that this happened and that it's being swept under the rug.

quote:

I just got out of a Lyft to drop a visiting friend off at his hotel in the CBD only to be blocked by police tape because the valet I just smiled at a few hours before is dead. Why? Because he wouldn't let someone park in front of the hotel.

Probably murdered by some scholar who was on the waiting list for Lester Earl’s slam poetry class

I saw the article about it this morning and thought the location was unusual. They just listed the intersection, not even the hotel name.

Zero respect for life and common decency. I hope this thug gets shot by the cops.

The article doesn’t say anything about anyone being “murdered”.

It’s a bit hard to provide information when nothing was provided. Maybe a description of the gunman?

It’s why most sane people that are lifelong Nola residents with the means have fled that shithole.

My wife (no pics) made me stay at the Ace last night for our anniversary. I had no idea any of this happened. And she wonders why I’m always looking around at our surroundings and not wanting to engage with people while in the city. Just more evidence to stay the frick away

I’m still looking for evidence that a murder occurred.

Or they could say that a Valet at a major hotel was gunned down in cold blood. Which is kind of the lead.

How do you know that?

Maybe the valet was the aggressor and guy his arse shot in a self defense situation?

I don't know. The Reddit post implies that there was a dispute over parking. I inferred that the valet did not have a gun and that the parker did. Thus, the more logical conclusion is a murder. But yes, I could be wrong. But it's still big news with not even the most basic information provided.

They could have said a valet at a major hotel in the heart of the central business district was:

-shot
-killed

Man killed in CBD doesn't illuminate.

We should definitely keep the murderer alive, fed, clothed, and housed for the next 60 years incase it turns out that he has a hidden talent creating beautiful homemade pottery or oil paintings.

The NOLA article says both drew guns and the customer wasn’t taken into custody yet not sure who the aggressor was.

Reddit post actually had zero details except man shot followed by speculation (rightfully so).

Per Nola.com article
quote:

The valet employee was possibly the aggressor in the killing, the source said, and the customer was not taken into custody, though the case remains under investigation.
