At least eight people were reported shot Sunday (April 22) in New Orleans.
A man was brought to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the chest, marking the eighth victim in the sixth shooting reported in New Orleans on Sunday (April 22), according to New Orleans police.
The man arrived at the hospital about 9:30 p.m. and told police he was shot in the 7th Ward, near the intersection of Marias and Frenchmen streets, according to an NOPD alert sent just before midnight.
No further information was immediately available.
Of the seven other victims, one was fatally shot.
According to police, a 25-year-old man was responsible for at least four of the six shootings Sunday. NOPD Chief Michael Harrison said Charles Williams went on a „violent crime spree,“ shortly after 4:30 p.m. after being involved in a domestic issue.
Police apprehend Williams Sunday evening after he led officers on a chase in a stolen Toyota Corolla across the city, which ended when Williams crashed the car in Mid-City.
