Shot and killed over gasoline. Wow. There are too many guns on the street. This is no way to end an argument.

This isn't a good guy or a bad guy incident. Some of the homicides with gun violence are CONVENIENCE killings. THE GUN WAS CONVENIENTLY AT THE SCENE when tempers flair and someone ends up dead.

It is no different than when two men were arguing over their cell phones, pull to the side of the road and both that had concealed carry permits ended up dead due to the passions of the moment.

THESE ARE NOT CRIMINALS PLANNING TO BREAK THE LAW AND HAVING GUN(S) TO ASSIST THE CRIME; THESE ARE CRIMES OF PASSION and the GUNS WERE CONVENIENTLY AT THE SCENE.

THERE ARE TOO MANY GUNS ON THE STREET.

A New Orleans man (click here) has now been arrested in connection to a fatal shooting Friday at a Metairie gas station.

It happened just before 6 p.m. Friday at the Chevron gas station on Clearview Parkway near West Napoleon Avenue.

Jefferson Parish Sheriff Joseph Lopinto said 20-year-old Walter Sippio, of New Orleans, shot and killed Dwayne Nosacka, 30, of Metairie, following an altercation over gasoline.

Nosacka was shot once in the chest and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Gasoline is in short supply in much of hurricane-ravaged southeast Louisiana. The sheriff said the argument stemmed from Sippio cutting a line in an attempt to get gasoline.

Witnesses tell police that Sippio cut in line with his white minivan, directly in front of Nosacka’s car.

A line of cars stretched several blocks, all attempting to get gasoline at the Chevron station.

Officials said Nosacka got out of his car and began arguing with Sippio.

Sippio then grabbed a gun, shot Nosacka once, then fled the scene in the minivan, officials said....
