The shooting is still under investigation. Anyone with information about who may have done this is asked to call Iberia Crime Stoppers at 337-364-TIPS.

On March 18, 2022, at approximately 9:30 p.m. NIPD responded to a drive-by shooting in the 200 block of C V Jackson Drive.

Three victims were taken to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, but two others, including the baby, were in critical condition.
