An officer with the Housing Authority of New Orleans was fatally shot in his patrol car while working a security detail at the construction site of the Guste Homes public housing complex, according to New Orleans police officials Sunday (May 24). Authorities have not yet identified the male officer, who had been with the HANO department for about two years, HANO Police Chief Robert Anderson said.
"It is truly a sad day for our department," Anderson said. "We've never had an on-duty death in the department's history."
HANO police found the officer's body about 7:10 a.m. Sunday in his patrol car, which came to a stop at the intersection of Erato and Freret streets after striking the curb, NOPD Superintendent Michael Harrison said. They suspect he was shot in the 2300 block of Freret Street.
The officer had been working an overtime detail at the construction site, which sits in the shadow of the Guste high rise. Investigators don't yet know when he was killed.

Probably a tea party person on his way to church. Maybe CNN will follow up on that.
0bama, the great unifier the MSM brought us ...
Looks as it If the HANO officer was targeted. I wonder why, I would love to see his activities since being on the force and perhaps before.
Some will retaliate for the shooting of a dog, others for the shooting or beating of a kid or other loved one. I recent years we have seen more and more incidents of both.
I also wonder if the is just the tip of the retaliatory iceberg.
Go to youtube and put this in the search box without the quotation marks. “police beat up girl” you will be amazed at the results, the number of returns, now think about thee men in the lives of those women. Add into that, that for everyone one recorded there are thousands that go unrecorded.
The police cannot continue to make enemies in the numbers they are currently adding enemies and expect to be safe.
It is truly a sad day for our department,” Anderson said. “We’ve never had an on-duty death in the department’s history.”....

Kill someone guarding a public housing project under construction ??? Maybe thugs stealing copper or other recyclables? Damn.
WTF do you know about his guy? He was 45 and had been on the force for two years. Other than that there is nothing to be known about him yet.
