A woman was killed in Crown Point Saturday morning, according to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office.
Sarah Duffy, 41, of Marrero was arrested in connection with the shooting.
Just before 5 a.m. Saturday, deputies responded to a call of a shooting in the 5200 block of Sharpe Road.
When they arrived, they found two people suffering from gunshot wounds, Duffy and the victim.
Investigators believe Duffy and the victim were part of a group of people who decided to go fishing Saturday morning in Crown Point.
During that time, investigators said Duffy and the victim got into a fight.
The fight stopped, then continued inside Duffy’s car.
Once inside the car, deputies said Duffy pulled out a handgun and the two women began fighting over the handgun and the gun went off twice.
One shot hit the victim in the head, and one hit Duffy in the leg.
The victim was pronounced dead on the scene and Duffy was transported to a local hospital before being arrested.
Duffy is charged with manslaughter.
This is an ongoing investigation.
