Cops: Father and son shot in domestic incident, dad dies

NOPD

New Orleans police say a father and his adult son began arguing Sunday, then bullets started flying.

"The NOPD is investigating a domestic homicide that occurred today," Public Information Officer Paris Holmes said.


It happened in the 7400 block of Crestmont Road in New Orleans East.

"At around 3:26 p.m., NOPD Seventh District officers responded to an aggravated battery by shooting call at the location."

Holmes says when cops got there they found one male victim suffering from a gunshot wound.

"He was transported to the hospital by NOEMS."

The 43-years-old later died.

"It was also determined another male victim (23 years old) suffering with a gunshot wound(s) arrived at the hospital by private conveyance."

Detectives later put the pieces together.

"The initial investigation has revealed the two male victims, a father and son, were arguing; at some point, each sustained a gunshot wound."

The investigation continues.
