Two New Orleans men have been arrested in connection with a double shooting that occurred last weekend inside of Jack's Bus Stop bar, leaving one woman dead and another man injured, according to New Orleans Police Department spokesman Garry Flot.
Police arrested Tyrone Stevenson, 20, without incident Tuesday at about 9:45 p.m. inside of a home in the 8800 block of Olive Street, Flot said.
Dejean Pierce, 20, also was arrested about 12:05 a.m. this morning at his home at 9003 Nelson St., he said.
Both suspects were taken to Central Lockup where they were booked with first degree murder and attempted first degree murder, Flot said.
The shooting occurred shortly after midnight May 16 inside of a bar in the 8500 block of Hickory Street in Uptown. Second District officers responding to a call of a shooting found the victims, Qian Sabaiter, 26, and a 29-year-old man suffering from gunshot wounds.
