A juvenile was attempting to carjack a Louisiana State Trooper, leading the trooper to fire his gun late Thursday night (April 5) in Uptown New Orleans, state police said Friday morning as they released new details about the incident.

The juvenile was arrested and booked with attempted carjacking, police said. His name was not released.

The trooper was on-duty in an unmarked police car late Thursday night near the intersection of Green Street and Broadway Avenue. A dark-colored vehicle pulled up beside his and the juvenile got out, police said.

The juvenile "attempted to enter" the trooper's unit and the trooper fired his gun, the statement said.

Maybe the trooper was laughing too hard to shoot straight.

This kid is a future Darwin award winner.

Years ago, I read that a guy tried to rob a restaurant while an FBI meeting was going on.

And in Seattle the activists who are demanding a juvenile jail not be built would have sent the kid to some sort of counseling with teddy bears and such.

I knew Uptown in was my favorite city

I was just there two nights ago

Stayed at Chateau Le Moyne in the old stables rooms which I had not done in 35 years

With my oldest boy

Ate at Mandinas .

Red Fish Ponchatrain and Creole Parmigiana Zucchini sticks and Shrimp Remoulade and my boy had the Veal....we ordered off the chalkboard like smart folks do there

Cindy was there and said yes it’s true Landreui was booed by patrons and left quickly over the statue stupidity but it’s not true they the owners asked him to leave

Urban legend....she said we’d never ask someone to leave over politics even if they disagreed and she winked

Beignets later and walked till 2am

We’d been to Venice Louisiana ...end of the world...

The river is very very high right now

Anyhow...I grew up two hours north...it’s my town but it’s got issues

We drove lower ninth at midnight in my pickup with stars and bars tag

Nobody messes with you....they thinking you’re serioisly heeled in a dark truck with white boy stickers

[Black Agnes]

You had me at Shrimp Remoulade.

Now I’m off to find low carb Remoulade recipes.

My mom grew up not far from the 9th ward. They’ve been back a couple times. She’s heartbroken at what’s happened since the mid 50s when they left. 9th ward was full of meanness in the 50’s though. She said they’d lay awake at night and hear all the police sirens there, even back then.

Dish!ts gotta engage in dipsh!ttery.

Stupid games stupid prizes

[jiggyboy]

Not stupid enough. I’m not seeing anything about him being injured, from a shot fired at point-blank range. I guess it’s true that cops really are just horrible shots.

Is “juvenile” a clever new euphemism for “Teen”?

Shrimp Remoulade

Um-yum! One of the few things we have as a take-away from the time we spent in New Orleans. We lived in (I think) the 7th ward just off Elysian Fields.

Where I got a quick primer on race relations....ah the memories!

Check out the you tube video of the “amish” kids trying to rob the local police station in Florida. Hilarity ensues, at least for the good guys.

[Vermont Lt]

I hope he had a camera going at the time. That would worth pay per view prices!

[Midwesterner53]

NO is a filthy, corrupt city. I feel bad for anyone who is sentenced to live there.

[BBell]

But it’s fun.

We’d been to Venice Louisiana ...end of the world...

then you went through my grandmother's ancestral home of Buras. Not that Katrina left much

"..Is “juvenile” a clever new euphemism for “Teen”?.."

Mebbe "yutes" will make comeback as well! d;^)

[trebb]

We have a few mini-mart service stations that keep the "No Weapons Allowed" signs up - a few of them have been robbed at gunpoint and I haven't heard of any of the others being robbed - also noted is that the local LEOs frequent the gun-friendly places and I've had conversations with some of the Sheriffs about my carry piece with no perceived problems from them....pretty friendly and decent crew in my neck of the woods.

Point being that it was a "yute" who thought he had an easy target...

[ClearBlueSky]

The 13 year old POS also has a record! He should have had his head splattered all over the sidewalk. ANYONE in the streets of New Orleans at night is a target. Sub-humans rule. And wait until the black political activist from South Central L.A. takes office as Mayor!

[BBell]

I haven’t been paying attention to the mayor elect. I just read a nola.com profile of her. She is your arch-typical activist politician I see. It looks like she will not get much accomplished except raising the debt, give gang bangers more turf to operate, and further kill the golden goose of tourism.
