A burst of gunfire at the intersection of Chef Menteur Highway and Bullard Avenue on February 8, 2023, killed 25-year-old Tationa Hudgins while she was in a vehicle with family. The shooting also took the life of her 18-year-old sibling, Kristen Hudgins, and wounded other occupants, including Tationa’s two young children, ages three and eight. Authorities described the incident as a targeted attack. The family had already lost a younger sibling to gun violence less than a year earlier.

The New Orleans Police Department opened an investigation into the double homicide. If anyone has information about the shooting or the victims’ movements that evening, please share what is known with investigators.
