2 Dead, 13 Injured In NOLA Shootings

SCARY

In four separate Halloween night incidents.

New Orleans police said Tuesday that two people were killed and another 13 injured in four separate shootings on Halloween night. There were two shootings in the tourist-heavy French Quarter and the Central Business District that left two men dead and 10 people injured, and then three other men were injured in separate shootings a short while later. All of the victims in the shooting on Bourbon St. were caught in the crossfire when two men began shooting at each around 12:30 a.m.—surrounded by costumed bystanders. Only one man has been arrested so far in the shootings, Baltiman Malcom, 24, and he has been charged with one count of first-degree murder and three counts of attempted murder. Police allege Malcom shot four people on Canal St. and University Place.
