FILE - In this May 16, 2013 file photo, New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu listens to New Orleans Police Department Superintendent Ronal Serpas speak at a news conference at North Villere and Frenchman Streets, where 20 people were shot in a the parade on Mother's Day in New Orleans. Gunfire one boozy Mardi Gras weekend, a mass shooting at a jazz music parade and the gunshot deaths of three children in 2013 nearly overshadowed a promising statistic New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu touts as he seeks re-election Saturday: the city’s murder rate dropped last year by nearly 20 percent.
