13 people shot at impromptu memorial in Louisiana

BOGALUSA, La. — Thirteen people were shot Saturday night as a large group gathered in a Louisiana city for an impromptu memorial service for a man whose body was found this month, authorities said.

No one was killed, but one person was in critical condition after the incident in Bogalusa, about 75 miles northeast of New Orleans, police said.

The crowd was gathered in a vacant lot to remember Dominique James, who was missing for several days before being found dead May 8, investigators said.

Police haven’t had a witness come forward to give a better description of the shooting and have made no arrests, Bogalusa Police Maj. Troy Tervalon said.

The gathering of at least 150 people Saturday night were mostly friends, Tervalon said.
