New Orleans Police detectives are looking for a man seen on video pulling out a gun and a person of interest in the investigation of a shooting that happened Sunday in the 600 block of Canal Street. The unknown man is seen pulling out and firing a handgun, allegedly injuring two bystanders, then leaving the area on foot heading east toward Exchange Place, police said.

Police also identified 20-year-old Jerry Harris as a person of interest in the investigation, saying he is not wanted in the shooting but being sought for questioning. Harris was reportedly engaged in an altercation in the area seconds before the shooting occurred. He was also seen leaving the scene of the shooting in the same direction as the gunman in the video, police said.

Mitch had some strange priorities.
Well, not really strange, just misplaced, self serving, and predictable.

I watched the video several times last night. It was interesting to see a street level view of how these shootings go down. Dudes are all scuffling and then the one guy just pulls out a gun and throws a shot before everyone runs off. The fact that he is sending a bullet down Canal Street in broad daylight doesn’t seem to enter the equation. Pretty crazy.

It's that damn statue of Andrew Jackson that's the cause. Take it down and all will be right with the world.

Yeah but think of all the oppression that’s gone now

Got any stats on that?

2017 - NOLA - Total Murders = 157
2018 - NOLA - Total Murders = 114
43 more to tie. Three full months to go.

Pandering to minorities doesn't change their default behavior? I'm shocked!

Who could have foreseen such a thing?

Fathers being gone likely matter more than statues

So about 2 less murders per month

Fighting over Popeyes is not a way to solve your problems

It would crush him to know that there was a sharp drop off of murders after the statues came down.
2018 set to have fewer murders than 2017 or 2016.
That obviously doesn't reflect all crime though.
Asked for proof of increased crime and he linked evidence of reduced crime.
