The family of a 21-year-old man who was shot and killed Friday in the Treme-Lafitte area was still reeling in shock Sunday. Christopher Lambert was a "family man" who loved to play basketball, said his aunt, Geraldine Lambert.
"The family is taking it very hard," the victim's aunt said. "He was just the type of person to keep you laughing. It's a shock the way he died."
Lambert was shot in the head about 4:45 p.m. inside of an abandoned house in the 2500 block of Orleans Avenue, said Officer Garry Flot, spokesman for the New Orleans Police Department. Police found his body inside the house.
Police are following up on several leads, and have not released a motive or suspect in the slaying,?as the case remains under investigation.
Lambert loved to spend time with his sister, two brothers and four kids, his aunt said. Both of Lambert's parents are dead.
"I can't believe he's gone, but, you know, he's with his mother and father right now so I'm satisfied with that," said Geraldine Lambert.
The Lead Homicide Detective in this case is Ryan Vaught. Anyone with information that can help solve this crime can call Crimestoppers at 504.822.1111.
