NEW ORLEANS — The NOPD is investigating a shooting in Mid-City, just minutes after the deadly shooting on South Claiborne that killed three people and injured seven others.

She was taken to the hospital by EMS.
There’s no word on a motive, suspect, or her condition.
The victim was the 11th person shot Saturday night.
