Details are still unclear at this time exactly what happened in the wee small hours of Mardi Gras at a Lafayette banquet hall. What we do know is that Lafayette Police were called to the scene in the 200 block of St. Antoine in response to a report of a weapon being discharged inside the facility.

When LPD units arrived on the scene they discovered six people who had been injured in some form or fashion as a result of a gunshot. However, it doesn't appear that none of the victims was actually shot. Instead, it appears as if the injuries, as reported so far, may have come from fragments of a discharged projectile.

All of the injured were reported to have non-life-threatening injuries. They were either treated at the scene or transported to a local hospital where they were treated and released. No arrests have been in connection with the case and the investigation is ongoing.

If you have information related to this incident you may contact Lafayette Police or you may phone in an anonymous tip to Lafayette Crime Stoppers by calling 232-TIPS (8477)
