New Orleans' French Quarter police station becomes a vocational technical school, banning gun possession within a 1,000-foot radius, including parts of Bourbon Street.

New Orleans' French Quarter police station will be designated a vocational technical school, making gun possession illegal within a 1,000-foot radius around the station, including several blocks of Bourbon Street. This move comes as a response to Louisiana's new law eliminating the need for concealed carry firearm permits. The station, which already includes a classroom for training, will be considered a "satellite" of the city's police academy.
