Two people killed as car hits crowd near Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans
Two damaged bicycles lay in the street as New Orleans Police Department officers respond to a fatal hit and run accident along Esplanade Avenue in Bayou St. John in New Orleans, Saturday, March 2, 2019. NEW ORLEANS -- Two people have been killed and six injured after being struck by a vehicle on a busy New Orleans thoroughfare Saturday evening, authorities said.
"We were able to apprehend the subject so quickly because citizens stopped this individual, because they thought they were helping someone who had just been involved in a one-car accident," Ferguson said. EMS spokesman Jonathan Fourcade said a man and a woman -- both about 30 years old -- were killed. The injured ranged in age from 28 to 65. Five of the injured were taken to the hospital while one refused treatment, Fourcade said.
