NEW ORLEANS (AP) - New Orleans police say a third man has turned himself in to face charges from a shooting on Bourbon Street three days before Mardi Gras.
    
Officer Hilal Williams says 19-year-old Malcolm Hall was booked Saturday with four counts of attempted first-degree murder.
    
An online jail roster indicates that his bond had not been set Sunday.
    
Two Marrero men, 22-year-old Brandon Brown and 23-year-old Deron Bridgewater, turned themselves in earlier and were booked with the same charges. Their bonds are set at $1 million: $250,000 on each count. It was not clear whether any of them has an attorney.
    
The shooting injured four people, one seriously, during the run-up to Mardi Gras. Police have not released the victims' names.
