NEW ORLEANS — Five of the six people shot in Mid-City Friday night were juveniles ages 15-17 and include one teenager who died from his wounds at the scene, NOPD officials said.

In total, six people were shot and one was killed at the intersection of City Park Avenue and Canal Boulevard late Friday night in a shooting that continues to unfold as the NOPD investigates.

According to police officials, officers responded to the scene around 10:30 p.m. after they received a call that someone had been shot near the intersection. When they arrived, they found five teenage males and an adult male suffering from gunshot wounds.

One of the teenage victims died on the scene, according to New Orleans EMS.

Maybe we won't have to hear the typical responses about poor marksmanship in this thread.

I guess they were using the street cars or hanging out at a bus stop? There isn’t much at that intersection but cemeteries. Something tells me they weren’t coming from the bulldog

They were 90 minutes away from midnight basketball. They should have known better.

If the shooter isn't white, or a white Hispanic, these lives won't matter.

What are the chances this was a gun owner defending himself vs a convicted felon in possession of a firearm shooting at a convicted felon in possession of a firearm. I should turn in my gun so this madness will stop.
