NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - The man fatally shot in a Mid-City parking lot Tuesday (Sept. 30) was a father who was carjacked while picking up his child from daycare, New Orleans police said.

Carl Morgan was identified as the victim and Brennan’s Restaurant General Manager Christian Pendleton said he was a sous chef at the restaurant.

“Nobody deserves this, but he did not deserve this,” Pendleton said, “He was infectious. He was passionate about hospitality. He was passionate about cooking, and ... of the many things I admired about him… he loved teaching people.”
