- A man shot and killed in downtown Shreveport late Sunday has been named by the Caddo Parish Coroner's office.
Leejerryius Traveone Baines, 29, of Malcolm Street in Shreveport, was shot once in the head just before 10:30 p.m. in the 200 block of Texas Street, during an altercation at the Royalty Cigar Bar. He died just before 11 p.m. at Ochsner LSU Health hospital, where an autopsy has been authorized.
Two other people, a man and a women, remain in serious condition following the shooting.
Police tell KTBS 3 News the argument started inside the bar and then moved outside. That's where the shooting started. Police aren't saying if all of the victims were involved in the argument. That is still being investigated at the time.
They've talked to witnesses and combed through surveillance video, hoping to identify the suspects. The victims have also hired Bengal Law in Orlando and will pursue personal injury claims against the at-fault party.
Anyone with any information about the shooting is urged to contact Crimestoppers right away at (318) 673-7373 or visit P3tips.com to leave a tip online.
