The New Orleans Police say a man was shot early Sunday Morning on Lafayette Street near South Peters Street.

"The victim and his friends were leaving a business.
While walking, they heard a gunshot. The victim realized he was shot," according to a news release.

"They ordered a rideshare and relocated to a local hospital."

Cops did not say the victim's condition.

It happened shortly before 3:00am in the 300 Block of Lafayette Street.

The report had limited information on the suspect.
