Police shut down Bourbon Street between Iberville and Canal streets after the shooting, according to the Times-Picayune. Ronnie Buendia, a cashier at a parking garage on Iberville Street, told the paper that he heard four shots. Thousands go to Bourbon Street for the Bayou Classic, an annual game between two historically black colleges. About a year ago, a man was fatally shot on Bourbon Street not far from the site of Sunday’s shooting, the Times Picayune reported. In 2014, 10 people, including a woman who was killed, were shot as tourists walked along Bourbon Street, according to CBS News.
