On February 19, 2017, at about 3:37 a.m., police were called to a parking lot in the 1500 block and found two men who had been shot. One victim, 37-year-old Kentri Harper, died at the scene; the other was taken to a hospital with injuries.

The New Orleans Police Department homicide unit opened an investigation and a suspect was identified. Carlos Heard was later charged with Harper’s murder.
