Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office deputies arrested a 25-year-old New Orleans man early Monday after an overnight fatal shooting outside a business in Avondale.

JPSO deputies responded to a shooting in the 3000 block of U.S. Highway 90 — near a Subway and a Family Dollar — around 12:50 a.m., according to the Sheriff's Office.

Deputies found an unresponsive adult male on the ground who had multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead on the scene.

Deputies "encountered" Semaj Brown when they arrived, JPSO said in a statement, who said "he was involved in the incident." He was booked on a charge of second-degree murder.

The victim's identity hasn't been released.
