OPELOUSAS, La. (KLFY) — One man and one girl are dead, while three other children ranging from 17 months to 16-years-old have been hospitalized after a shooting in the 700 block of Mia St. this morning in Opelousas.

Opelousas Police Chief Martin McLendon said the two dead victims include a 46-year-old man and a four-year-old girl. Names have not been released, pending notification of their families. The man died at the scene, while the girl died from her wounds at a local hospital this morning.

The three remaining victims include a 17-month-old girl with serious injuries; a seven-year-old boy in stable condition; and a 16-year-old who appeared to have been grazed by a bullet.
