2 males shot in Allendale neighborhood

SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) — Two males have been shot in Shreveport’s Allendale neighborhood.

One is in critical and possibly life-threatening condition. Authorities said the other’s wounds did not appear to be life-threatening.

Details of the shooting are scant. But police do know neither of the victims was the intended target.

The shooting at Canaan Village Apartments was reported to the Shreveport Fire Department at 8:46 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 31, Caddo 911 dispatch records show.

Police are trying to determine exactly where the shooting occurred.

The Fire Department initially dispatched eight units to a medical emergency on Patzman Street between March and Dowling streets.

Three minutes later, five police units responded to a report of a shooting there in the 1900 block of Patzman. That number has since grown to at least 10 units.

This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
