A late-night shooting on Destrehan Avenue in Harvey, Louisiana, on January 31, 2021 left one man hospitalized and another dead. Jefferson Parish deputies were called to the 2800 block about 1:30 a.m. after reports of a shooting and found a 56-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and survived. Initial searches did not locate a second victim.

Three days later, on February 3, investigators returned to an apartment on the same block and found 34-year-old David Brignac of Harvey deceased. An autopsy determined he died of a gunshot wound from the January 31 incident, and the discovery officially made the case a homicide investigation. Authorities were working to identify a suspect and determine a motive.

If anyone knew David, saw activity on Destrehan Avenue that night, or has information about the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
