BATON ROUGE —- A portion of South River Rd. is closed at this time as officials respond to a double shooting.

It happened before 10:30pm on Sunday, May 7 between the U.S.S. Kidd and the River Center on River Rd. in Baton Rouge.

Early reports indicate a possible drive-by shooting with dozens of rounds fired. Shell casings are reported to be all over the roadway.

One person was shot and transported to a hospital. Their condition is unknown at this time. A second person was grazed by a bullet. It’s also unknown if the people shot were the intended targets of the shooting or bystanders injured by bullets

I remember when Mayor Kip Holden tried to bring businesses and social life to downtown.

White Supremacy is definitely the problem here.

Before we jump to conclusions, could it have been part of a WW2 re-enactment?

They should leave one or two of those 5” guns loaded to handle crime in that area.

Someone needs to find powder for those guns on the Kidd and take aim at some areas within a short area of there.

I’ve been downtown late on a Sunday night was pretty shocked by the number of youths out there after 10pm. It was a school night!

I initially read this to mean the USS Kidd and the River Center had a beef with each other.

So they hit everything other than their intended target?

Just a local citizen protecting the USS Kidd from an attack.
Somebody will get a medal.
