A warrant has been issued for 18-year-old Glen Emerson, who NOPD believes played a role in the murder of Joseph Massenburg, an 18-year-old Americorps worker who was killed on April 1, 2013. 

Robberies came in a pair in the Marigny Friday night. A pair of muggings in the Rectangle were reported three minutes apart, according to NOPD incident logs. In one case, a shot was fired, police said.

Two-thirds of the terrible trio are behind bars. With help from Crimestoppers tip and a video that showed the grisly crime, police arrested a pair of brothers in connection with the brutal Sunday morning CBD beating and robbery. A third suspect is still at-large, police said.

A 31-year-old man was killed this morning, May 23, on US 90 B at the Broad Street Overpass, around 4:45am. Responding to a traffic call, Sixth District officers discovered a black Infiniti Coupe covered in bullet holes, with the victim in the driver's seat. 

The horrific Mother's Day shooting left 19 people injured, some severely. In an effort to help the victims, folks can head to the Arts Market, near the Spotted Cat, (623 Frenchmen Street) at today’s Blood Drive.

During JazzFest, pulled pork is commonplace in Mid-City, but stealing the bacon is taking things a step too far. Police are searching for the criminals who pilfered a pig statue in Mid-City amid the Fest. The statue, which was located outside of a home in the 3400 block of Esplanade Ave., depicts a pig wearing a chef's outfit and holding a sign that says "Eat More Crawfish." The statue was stolen on the morning of May 1, no doubt by a group now living high on the hog.

Three men administered a brutal beating in the CBD early Sunday morning to take a man's wallet and cell phone. About 3:45 a.m., a man and woman were walking in the 400 block of Carondelet Street. Video shows three men - one in cook's pants and one with a towel hanging from his belt - walking separately, then quickly surround the couple. The man is then hit from behind.
