Just after Mardi Gras ended, gunfire erupted outside Mojo’s on Cleary Avenue in Metairie in the early hours of Wednesday, February 18, 2015. Deputies were called about 2:10 a.m. after shots rang out in the parking lot; shell casings were found scattered at the scene. A man later identified as 22-year-old Darren Dedeaux arrived at area hospitals with gunshot wounds to the chest and neck and was transferred to University Hospital. He remained hospitalized for days and was pronounced dead on the evening of Saturday, February 21.

The shooting wounded at least one other person, 24-year-old Dintrell Jolla, who was treated at Ochsner with a gunshot wound to the hand. Investigators reported that a business, two apartments, and three vehicles were struck by bullets. Authorities called the investigation active but released few details about what started the shooting or who fired the fatal shots.

On February 25 deputies booked 22-year-old Anthony Miskell, accused of firing at suspects who had shot Dedeaux, but officials said no additional suspects had been identified. Does anyone have information about what led to the exchange of gunfire outside Mojo’s that night?
