The woman - who according to several witnesses announced that she was a New Orleans police officer - had come to the Treme Community Center to pick up a 7-year-old nephew and, for reasons unknown, became enraged at the driver of the car in front of her in the pickup line, witnesses said.
Numerous witnesses said the woman relentlessly honked her car horn. As the situation escalated, she yelled expletives at the other driver and got halfway out of her car and brandished a gun, they said. At that point one of the witnesses called 911...
Police Department spokesman Bob Young confirmed that a ranking officer responded from the 1st District, but Young said the ranking officer ruled the incident "unfounded" because the officer couldn't find the person who'd dialed 911.

When Howell stopped at Esplanade Avenue, she said, the woman pulled alongside her and continued to yell, "You don't know who you're f -- -ing with, b -- -- ," Howell said.
Witnesses said the woman soon returned to the Treme Center, where she intercepted the responding officer, showing him what appeared to be a badge and asking to talk in private, Batiste said.
After a short conversation, the woman and officer walked out together, speaking loudly about the situation. In front of a group of people that included children and staff, the responding officer told the woman, in a loud voice, "You should have blasted that m -- -- -f -- -- -," referring to Lindsey.
After tapping fists, the uniformed officer and the woman who claimed to be an officer walked off, without further comment, witnesses said.

“Police Department spokesman Bob Young confirmed that a ranking officer responded from the 1st District, but Young said the ranking officer ruled the incident “unfounded” because the officer couldn’t find the person who’d dialed 911.”
seems pretty clear NOPD is back to normal.
Kind of a Michelle moment.
Let me guess “Chocolate Justice”?
I’m shocked! It was the woman who terrorized the children. Usually in these kinds of situation, it’s the guns that scare/hurt people. /s
They were “tapping fists”, eh? Sounds like at least one vote for “Sistah Michelle” in there..../s
After tapping fists
Put a cap in her big ole butt.
NO police have a reputation as bad as the worst criminals in the USA!
Order of those to be helped by LEOs, it would appear -
1. Politicians
2. Other LEOs
3. Lawyers - because they know incorrect actions will come back to haunt them.

At an afternoon press conference, NOPD Chief Warren Riley confirmed that a female officer who was off-duty and accused of drawing her weapon during an altercation at the Treme Community Center.
Ashley Terry, who has been on the force for 15 months, was suspended without pay until further notice, Riley said, adding that the officer has one other previous complaint against her.
There were children and adults in the area when Terry allegedly drew her weapon, Riley said.
Two or three officers responded to the community center, Riley said, but added that no report was written about the incident.
The NOPD’s Public Integrity Bureau is investigating the incident.
I hope the person she threatened is safe. I wouldn’t want to be the target of a bunch of corrupt police.
You guys believe this sh** huh? To me it is just another anti-gun story. They will escalate exponentially since the Heller ruling. The MSM can’t stand the thought of people being armed and defending themselves so they will do what they can to turn public opinion against owning and using firearms. Any crappy firearms story they can report will be embellished and codified to make it seem that gun owners are all nut cases. End of rant.
The officers who responded to the incident, but didn’t write a report should be suspended as well.
I lived there 5 years and its the mother of all hell holes.
