Was about to post about it. Happened at the Tailoring by Tinh shop across from Benny’s and the fire station. Baton Rouge is trending up!

I said no cuffs.



All kidding aside, I hope it wasn't some thug that shot the shop owner.

Let's wait and see what this is about, remember the shooting at Benny's was road rage.

Besides, we all know too many big employers in town do too much business with the City-Parish and State to demand change.

Valley Street is a direct shot to the ghetto!! Crazy how in BR you can cross over one street, and go from nice neighborhoods right into the hood.

Some folks on the next door app are saying they heard gunshots which leads me to believe the shooting didn’t actually happen in the store. Of course it could have been other gunshots.

I live by Webb Park and was outside at 2:25. I hear 10-12 gunshots from the Valley area. No way those shots were from Perkins road.

That was probably a separate shooting at Fairway View
