A 21-year-old man was killed and a 31-year-old man was shot in the hand Tuesday afternoon in a shooting at the intersection of Tchoupitoulas Street and Jackson Avenue, police said.

The two men were inside a vehicle at the intersection about 1 p.m. when a black, four-door Acura pulled up and gunfire erupted from it, according to an NOPD news release. Nearby Sixth District officers heard the gunfire and arrived to see the Acura leaving, police said, but their attempt to chase it was unsuccessful and the Acura escaped, police said.

The 21-year-old — whom officials later told the Times-Picayune was named Lamar Ellis — died on the way to the hospital, officials said. The 31-year-old was shot in the hand and was in stable condition afterward, police said.
