Most of the shootings aren’t fatal

I think you are more likely to get stuck in traffic on the basin bridge than get shot on the interstate in NOLA

Assuming it's one dude he would not be classified a serial killer. The correct definition would be spree killer.
However, considering it is NOLA, there are tons of armed criminals running around, so it could very well be unrelated incidents.

Why do people on the OT just spout shite that is 100% incorrect as if they know what they are talking about? A "spree killer" kills multiple victims, in separate locations, but as a single act. For instance, that guy last week in the small town that killed six people. A "mass murderer" kills multiple people all in one place at one time. Like a school shooter. A "serial killer", what we are dealing with here, kills three or more people at different times and different locations. This person(s) has been doing this for three years now on the I-10 corridor and there are no links between the victims. That's a serial killer.

I wish people here would you know debate why they disagree rather than downvote and split. I really think the 3 cities plan is the only way to save NOLA.

This man. How come the NOPD can't give us any ballistics info. If it's a rifle I'll lean serial killer. If it's all small arms of different types then I'll think multiple killers.
Just right now if you need to shoot someone without being seen or caught no better spot than the parts of the interstate with an exit every mile.

Crowder is pretty bad. But Bullard isn't really bad at all Read is OK.
Off Dowman and off of Chef and where 510 ends are the worst spots.
I go to the east a few times a week. I'm more worried about bad drivers than getting shot out there. No owne follows traffic laws.

Honestly. The upper 9th ward and the 7th ward to me are a hell of a lot scarier than the east. The east is mostly homeowners. The section 8 areas are bad but most of its just middle class blacks and Vietnamese.
The high end areas like Eastover, Bullard Estates and Caramel are actually really nice houses. I really think the East can be saved with the right investment and its own police force.

It is bizarre that the NOPD won't release info. My belief is that the Mayor's Office doesn't want the political risk of a serial killer running loose on her watch so they are just sitting on the info. Which would normally not be believable, I am not a conspiracy guy, but we are talking about LaToya here and this would be far from the worst thing she has done.
As far as the weapon involved. It isn't a sniper with a rifle situation. It's someone pulling up next to cars and shooting from there. But no one has any idea if it's a shotgun, rifle, pistol or slingshot. There has been ZERO information released on that. It would be telling if it was a consistent type of caliber.
If all of the victims were thug life types, I could get on board with the "people settling street disputes" on the highway thing. But you have to look at two things:
1. The victims, as described in that article the guy did last year, are from all walks of life. So either the shooters attack the wrong people the majority of the time or it isn't gang / thug activity.
2. The concept of them staking out someone and then following them to the interstate just to shoot them in a convenient place is actually very sophisticated behavior. Unlike the movies, it's very difficult to surveil and follow someone. Especially with a single car. Police surveillances involve multiple vehicles and eight to ten people minimum. Then managing to get on the interstate and get beside them in time to shoot them up. The gang / thug types are much more likely to be the Target of Opportunity type where they see someone out at a club or on a street corner and just shoot them there.

I don't know. In this day and age you can pop a 20 tag on a car and know where it is at all times.
All I know is if someone ever points a gun at me while driving I'm going to intentionally hit their car right away.
Was told by an officer is smarter than trying to flee. Everyone pays attention to a wreck. The shooter isn't going to stick around and swap insurance

Not disagreeing but, again, you are describing some fairly sophisticated tactics. Do you really believe these teenaged gangbangers (which is who the NOPD and half this board say are doing this) are the types to buy AirTags, covertly place them on vehicles (do these thugs even own cars they consistently drive?) and then react to the trackers movements by responding and shooting the car up? That's some Miami Vice shite right there.

I was a Spree killer back when I was a kid. My favorites were the green and orange.

Do spree killers operate over such a long time period?
Who are the victims? Are they random people driving down the interstate?
