"The NOPD has determined this incident to be a justifiable homicide," Public Information Officer Juan Barnes said. "A store employee produced a gun and exchanged fire with the armed subject. The armed subject was struck and later died on scene, as a result of injuries sustained in the shooting."

He says the suspect had walked behind the checkout counter and threatened the employees and then fired his gun.

"Through investigation, NOPD Homicide Unit detectives determined that while inside of a business at the location, the decedent had grabbed a drink out of the wall cooler. He then walked towards the front of the checkout counter, subsequently he goes behind the counter. At this time, the decedent pointed a gun towards the direction of the employees, threaten to harm them and then fired a round in their direction."
