From The Times Picayune:
A man was fatally shot Sunday in Gentilly, becoming the seventh person slain in four days in New Orleans.
As Michael Allen, 32, was getting out of a vehicle in the 4700 block of Miles Drive Sunday shortly before 1 p.m., a man approached and opened fire, New Orleans police said.
The gunman escaped on foot, and Allen died a short time later at University Hospital, police spokeswoman Sabrina Richardson said. An autopsy will be performed today.
Authorities think Allen lived in New Orleans, but an identification document listed an address in Atlanta, said chief coroner's investigator John Gagliano, who released his identity.
The killing occurred between Paris Avenue and Overton Drive, two blocks south of Mirabeau Avenue.
