The New Orleans Police Department has identified a “person of interest” in last year’s fatal shooting at a 10-year-old’s birthday party.

The May 29 shooting at a home on Simon Bolivar shook up a city that has become jaded to daily reports of violent crime.  Two people, including a 5-year-old child, were killed in the shooting.  A woman was killed by a stray bullet a few blocks away from the shooting, and the 10-year-old birthday boy was also shot.  In all, five people were shot.

Investigators say 22-year-old Gary Magee (above) is now being sought in relation to the shooting.  Police are describing him as a “person of interest,” and not a suspect at this time.

A news release from the NOPD says Magee is also wanted on several weapons and narcotics charges.  

Anyone with information about Magee’s whereabouts is asked to call Crimestoppers at 504-822-1111.

The NOPD made one arrest of an 18-year-old in the case last year.   Police say two men at the party, who were shot but survived, were the intended targets of the shooting.
