  2. New Orleans police said they arrested (Thursday) a suspect in the Mother's Day shooting that left 19 people wounded this week. In a post on its Facebook page, the police department identified the man taken into custody as Akein Scott, 19. A SWAT team was used during the arrest Wednesday night in east New Orleans. Police identified the man as a suspect Monday after footage of the shooting was released. The shooting, during a festive Mother's Day parade, renewed concerns about crime in the city. It was the third holiday this year when guns have been fired into crowds, New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu said. A January 21 shooting near a Martin Luther King Day parade left five wounded. Four people were also hurt in a February Mardi Gras attack.
