NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — New Orleans police say a Domino’s delivery driver was shot and killed Monday night in Algiers. Police say the man was accompanied by a Domino’s trainee who was unhurt in the attack.
It happened in the 5900 block of Stratford Place a little after 7:15 pm. According to police, the driver had just made a pizza delivery and was outside of his delivery vehicle when another car rolled up and seven shots rang out.
The coroner identifies the victim as 49-year-old Michael County.
Police say the trainee was inside the car waiting for County to return. As of Monday night, detectives did not think robbery was a motive for the attack.
NOPD Superintendent Michael Harrison called on neighbors or anyone who saw something — or knows something — about the attack to contact CrimeStoppers at 504-822-1111.
