5-year-old hides as eastern New Orleans parents are murdered | NOLA.com: "Five-year-old Kenan Breaud ran into his mother's room early Monday morning as his father was shot to death in their New Orleans home, family members said.

His mother, Felicia Hughes, 32, who was hiding under the bed sheets, told Kenan to get out of sight, to lay down to the side of that very same bed. He quickly did so and moments later his mother was shot in her temple, still under the bed covers, relatives said on Monday afternoon.
Kenan Breaud, 36, and Hughes lived and died together in the one-story, eastern New Orleans brick home with blue shutters on Petit Bayou Lane. A block from the intersection of Michoud Boulevard and Willowbrook Drive, in the Village de L'Est subdivision, the home was near Sarah T. Reed High School, which Breaud had once attended.
Throughout Monday, Kenan Jr. was shocked, stunned and confused as he looked around for his parents. 'Where's my mommy? Where's my daddy?' he asked. The boy was staying with relatives on Monday and family and friends filtered in and out throughout the day, tears and food in tow.
A now-empty box that once contained the bicycle Kenan received for Christmas lay outside the home: 'From: Santa Claus,' it read."
