18-year-old Christian Roper was identified as the victim in the shooting. The coroner’s office says Roper sustained several gunshot wounds. Roper was killed Wednesday in a shooting at Grand Pointe Apartments off of Kaliste Saloom Road in Lafayette. He was located in the parking lot by police suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Roper was pronounced dead at the scene. A spokesperson with the department says that at this time there are no suspects in custody. As of Thursday afternoon, that has not changed.


Surely they have leads and just won’t tell the media. I had some sketchy stuff going on in the apartment below me minutes after. People below me packed up their bags and left quick.

One of my buddies is going through a divorce, he's paying more (per month) for a 2 bedroom apartment than his 3.5K sq foot house was costing with escrow.

I didn’t hear it. Actual shooting occurred at other end of complex. I didn’t know about it until this morning

Yeah I spoke to the investigator this morning. I have no idea if they interviewed anyone in my building. But they seemed to have an idea of the suspect’s vehicle. Cameras were just installed at the gate entrances.

It’s a damn racket. But this place is usually quiet. We have our trash but it’s 99% parents letting their kids run around in the parking lot until dark. Rent is affordable while we save up for an OT 7 home.

Apartments are located in the "good part" of Lafayette.

Was it necessary to say you live there?

Down vote.

From the title, I thought you owned the apartment complex and we’re wondering who to call to clean up the mess.

Sounds like a humble brag. Plus it wouldn't take someone much effort to piece things together.
