A man was killed in a shooting Tuesday afternoon (Oct. 3) in the St. Roch neighborhood, according to New Orleans police.
Police were investigating the shooting in the 2700 block of North Rocheblave Street.
Late Tuesday afternoon, police had cordoned off North Rocheblave from Arts Street to a point past Music Street. At least 15 officers were at the scene.
Most investigators gathered near North Rocheblave and Music streets, where a shield used to block bodies from public view had been set up on a sidewalk.
The scene was calm as groups of residents quietly watched police work from porches and front stoops, some of the onlookers waiting to return to their homes blocked off by police tape.
No further information was immediately available from police.
