Police responded to reports of shots fired in the Cedar Grove community of Shreveport just after 6 a.m. CT and found victims in two homes along West 79th Street and a third home on nearby Harrison Street, Bordelon said.
“This is a very large scene with multiple deceased children present,” Bordelon said.
The suspect carjacked a vehicle and led police on a chase into the next parish, Bordelon said.
“The vehicle was chased into Bossier Parish, and at which point in time, Shreveport police officers did discharge their firearm, and that individual is deceased,” he said.
