Man Arrested for Second Degree Murder in Shreveport Homicide
The Shreveport Police Department has made an arrest in connection with a homicide that occurred in the 700 block of West 74th Street.
Just after 5 p.m. on May 16, officers responded to a call reporting a shooting. Upon arrival, they discovered a male suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. The victim was transported to a local hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries.
Detectives with the Violent Crimes Unit responded to the scene and commenced their investigation. Through their efforts, they have arrested 20-year-old Rodriguez Howard on one count of second-degree murder.
The investigation revealed that the two unrelated males were involved in a dispute over a female when Howard produced a firearm and shot the victim. This incident is believed to be isolated, and there is no ongoing threat to the public.
We continue to work diligently to bring justice to those affected by this tragedy.
Suspects are innocent until proven guilty.
