A large crowd assembled in the park for an unauthorized block party and the impromptu music video filming when gunfire erupted.
One of the victims is possibly paralyzed and may never walk again, the mayor said.
Police have said that as many as 500 people may have been at the park when two groups began shooting and 17 people were wounded – 11 of them under age 21. “People know who did this, people were out here”.
“As the officers were within one block, they heard shots that were fired”.
The New Orleans Police Department, joined by Landrieu and other city officials, spoke to the public to provide an update on the investigation of a mass shooting. Incidents like Sunday’s shooting can “change the feel of the city quickly”, Sharf said. Robertson says police also are still working on a breakdown by age and sex. In the chaotic aftermath, the gunmen ran off.
Calling it an “unbelievably senseless shooting” that is “akin to domestic terrorism”, Landrieu said that one of the victims may be paralyzed for life and another was 10 years old; most had already been released from the hospital.
Hundreds of people were gathered late Sunday for what police have described as a combination block party and music video shoot.

As said by the Mayor, Mitch Landrieu, “At the end of the day, it’s really hard to police against a bunch of guys who made a decision to pull out guns and settle their disputes with 300 people in between them, and it is not something you can tolerate in the city”.
