According to police, the bullet struck the toddler in the chest at around 2.10am Wednesday at a residence in the 5600 block of Red Maple Drive. The child died at a nearby hospital a short time later.
The victim’s grandmother, 42-year-old Deonca Kennedy, was arrested just hours later on charges of negligent homicide, second-degree cruelty to a juvenile and child desertion.
Court records cited by Nola.com indicate that Kennedy’s only other arrest occurred in 2005, when she was charged with public intimidation and solicitation of murder. More
