Double shooting in Marrero
MARRERO, La. -- Deputies say that a double shooting in Marrero late Tuesday night claimed the life of one of the victims, a 18-year-old woman.
When officers responded to the 2000 block of Basie Drive, a 18-year-old Alisha Lee, of Marrero, was found lying in the back seat of a car, police said. She had been shot several times and was pronounced dead on the scene. A 20-year-old man, Danny Young, of Marrero, was shot in the lower back and taken to the hospital. His injuries were not life-threatening.
