Alleged burglar shot in Cedar Grove
Staff Reports
Posted on October 3, 2003

A man was shot and killed Thursday night while allegedly trying to rob a
house in the Cedar Grove neighborhood.

The intruder, whose name and age were unknown late Thursday, allegedly
broke into a house in the 500 block of East 69th Street just before 10
p.m., said Shreveport Detective Jeff Brown.

The man then reportedly took an item from the house when the home owner,
who is in his 30s, armed himself and shot the man at least once at
fairly close range, police said.

The home owner, whose name was not released, told police he’d made
several reports that his home had been robbed previously, Brown said.
