A gunman in Louisiana killed eight children in domestic-related shootings at two different homes early Sunday, police in Shreveport said. The victims ranged in age from one to about 14 years old, said Shreveport police spokesperson Chris Bordelon. A total of 10 were people shot. The gunman later died after a chase with officers who fired at the suspect, Bordelon said. The suspect stole a car while leaving the scene of the shootings and was followed by police, according to Bordelon. Police did not release the name of the suspect but did say he was an adult male. Officials said they were still gathering details at the crime scenes south of downtown Shreveport " the two homes and a third location. Some of the children shot were related to the suspect, Bordelon said. "This is an extensive scene unlike anything most of us have ever seen," he said. |
