Also, Esplanade mall back in the news
By Bob WarrenHuman toll: The violence plaguing our streets takes a terrible human toll. A 19-year-old New Orleans woman is fighting for her life in an area hospital after she was shot in the head during a party a couple weeks ago. Ramon Vargas and Gabriella Killett spoke with Nadia Abed’s family Monday night. Sean, Skylene tie the knot: As weddings go, this one was pretty unique: an ex-NBA star officiated, there was a mariachi band, and the groom wore Nikes. Saints coach Sean Payton and Skylene Montgomery were married over the weekend in Mexico. Flash flood watch: Not a fan of the rain? Sorry – there’s more coming today, forecasters say. The region remains under a flash flood watch. The expected rain, of course, follows several days of storms that flooded houses in the Slidell area over the weekend and swamped streets across the metro area Monday evening. Calling Kenner: A woman attending a Kenner City Council meeting last year took out her cellphone to video the meeting. All heck broke loose and it wound up in court. See what happened here. Forfeiting football titles: Prep powerhouse Catholic High School of Baton Rouge will forfeit two state football championship titles – including the 2017 game in which they beat John Curtis. Here’s the latest. All this and much more in today’s Lunch Line. Thanks for taking a break with us. BW |
