Around 5 a.m. Tuesday, Sir Donavon Jordan, 29, went outside to the parking lot of his apartment on Cherry Hill Avenue after his wife woke up to a car horn and saw someone inside her vehicle, the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office said in an affidavit of probable cause.

After Jordan went outside, the wife said she heard several gunshots and looked out the window to see a male running away from the parking lot.

She told deputies that Jordan said he had shot the man and then left in her vehicle and took a firearm with him.

Two bullet casings were found in the parking lot near where the vehicle was parked, according to the report.

The victim later arrived at a relative’s home in the 10800 block of Ansley Drive and was transported to an area hospital in “serious condition.” A family member told deputies that the victim arrived at her residence shortly before 5 a.m., banging on the door and yelling that he had been shot. The victim was shot several times, including once in the abdomen, the report said.

Jordan, 10952 Cherry Hill Ave., Baton Rouge, was booked into East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on counts of attempted second-degree murder, felon in possession of a firearm and illegal use of a weapon. He was also booked on an bench warrant for counts of domestic abuse battery and simple criminal damage to property.
