On a summer evening in New Orleans, tragedy struck in the Hollygrove neighborhood. Darrien M. Christmas, a 50-year-old man, was fatally shot at the intersection of Mistletoe and Edinburgh streets on Friday, June 18, 2010.
Details surrounding the incident remain scarce as official news reports at the time did not publicly identify Christmas as the victim of the shooting.
Information regarding a motive for the attack, any potential suspects, or arrests in the case has not been made available in public records. The investigation into the death of Darrien Christmas has seemingly gone cold in the years since, with no new information released to the public about the circumstances that led to his death on that fateful evening.
