Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.New Orleans police say at least 10 people — and probably more — were wounded in an apparent shootout at a park in New Orleans' 9th Ward.
Police spokesman Tyler Gamble says police were on their way to break up a big crowd when gunfire erupted at Bunny Friend Park.
He says ambulances took 10 people to hospitals, and police were told that others were taken by private vehicles.
Gamble says investigators don't know how serious the wounds are, or what started the shooting.
He says there were two groups at the park — people who had walked there in a neighborhood parade and people watching or participating in a video.
Gamble says the video was being made without a permit to use the park.
