Two New Orleans Police officers were ambushed in the city's French Quarter neighborhood Friday by a gunman riding a pedicab who shot one officer in the face, police said. The officers were on vehicle patrol around 4:30 p.m. when they were fired upon by a male pedicab passenger, police Superintendent Shaun Ferguson said at the scene. One officer was shot in the left cheek, and the bullet lodged in his skull. The wounded officer was listed in serious but stable condition. Ferguson also thanked a retired Army veteran who helped treat the wounded officer before both officers were taken to a hospital.
