NOPD and FBI investigators on the scene of a murder in a Mid-City neighborhood.
The latest murder occurred in Mid-City, near the intersection of Esplanade Avenue and Columbus Street, shortly after 2 p.m., according to Joe Narcisse, an NOPD spokesman. A 23-year-old man was killed at that location. Police found shell casings covering a two block area and an AK-47.
Witnesses told investigators that a red Dodge Magnum pulled alongside a silver Dodge Durango and opened fire. However, the driver of the Magnum lost control and crashed into a parked vehicle. Three suspects got out of the Magnum, one of them wielding the AK-47 that was later found at the scene.
The driver of the Durango had been shot several times, Narcisse said. The victim made it to the intersection of Esplanade and N. Broad avenues before crashing his vehicle. He and a female passenger were transported to a local hospital. The driver died shortly after; police said the woman was unharmed.
Narcisse said both vehicles had Texas plates. Authorities hope this will help them learn more about those involved.
Investigators said they were still trying to determine if that murder was connected to any other crimes.
A short time after that shooting, police were on the scene of another shooting near the intersection of Foucher and S. Saratoga streets, Narcisse said.
Around 11 a.m., police received word of a shooting in the 7800 block of Venice Blvd, Narcisse said. Seventh District Officers found the victim lying in the street with gunshot wounds to his head and arm. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The first shootings of the day took place around 5 a.m. as a 22-year-old woman and her male companion were shot while walking in a Treme neighborhood, Narcisse said. The woman was shot twice in the chest and died later at a hospital. The man, 25, received a gunshot wound to the ankle.
Detectives were called out to a sixth shooting in Hollygrove just before 6 p.m. Police have not released any further information on this shooting.

Um... Im a little tired here but I did not see a single victim name in this report.
