New Orleans police investigate the scene of a shooting Sunday on the edge of the city's famed French Quarter in New Orleans

Ten people were injured — two critically — in a Sunday shooting on a main thoroughfare in New Orleans, police said.

Gunfire erupted just after 3:15 a.m. local time on the edge of the French Quarter on the 700 block of Canal Street, according to New Orleans police.

“What happened in our city overnight was a cowardly and senseless act that we cannot and will not tolerate,” NOPD Superintendent Shaun Ferguson said in a press conference.Nine of the shooting victims were taken to a nearby hospital and another person walked into a hospital with a gunshot wound, cops said.

Two remained critical Sunday morning, according to police.

No one has yet to be charged in the shooting, cops said.

New Orleans police, however, said a person of interest was in custody, but their role in the gunfire was unclear, NOLA.com reports.

Louisiana State Police and federal officials were assisting in the investigation.

Details were still scant Sunday afternoon on what sparked the shooting.

In an updated statement, New Orlean police changed the count on those injured to 10, not 11, shot.
