Anjelique Vu was 35 when she and a male companion were found shot to death inside their home in the 4900 block of Savoie Court in New Orleans East on the morning of August 11, 2007. Reports give the companion’s name as either Luong Nguyen or Wong Wen. Investigators believe the killings followed a home invasion and robbery; the victims’ two young children, an infant and a toddler, were found in the house physically unharmed after the attack.

The double homicide occurred amid a string of violent home invasions in eastern New Orleans that summer. In the days after the killings, the New Orleans Police Department increased patrols and National Guardsmen were assigned to the area. Despite an initial investigation, no suspects have been publicly identified or arrested, and the case grew cold.

Anyone with information about the killings of Anjelique Vu or her companion is urged to come forward to help bring answers for the children and the family.
