New Orleans police said a double shooting in the French Quarter early Saturday morning (March 21) has left a 25-year-old man dead and another man wounded.

Police said the shooting took place at 5:08 a.m. in the 700 block of Conti Street, between Bourbon and Royal streets. But the dispute appeared to have originated on the other side of Bourbon Street, in or near the 800 block of Conti around the Last Call Bar and Grill. That is the same area where musician Doug Potter was severely beaten last year as he walked past following a jazz gig in the French Quarter.

The NOPD has released few details on the shooting, but said the two men "got into a disturbance" that resulted in the gunfire. The 25-year-old man, who has not been identified, died at Interim LSU Hospital. The 28-year-old man he was with was hospitalized and police have not disclosed his condition.

Authorities ask anyone with information on the shooting to contact NOPD Homicide Detective Rayell Johnson at 504.658.5300 or call Crimestoppers at 504.822.1111.
