SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) — Shreveport police are investigating a report of a shooting.

Shreveport Fire Department medics were summoned to Fairfield Avenue at Baker Street at 8:32 p.m. Sunday, March 26, Caddo 911 dispatch records show.

One person could be seen being loaded onto an ambulance on Fairfield Avenue directly across from the SPAR athletic facility at Baker Street.

Police on the scene confirmed he’d been shot. They also said he might have been the one behind the wheel of a car that was parked down the unfinished, dead-end street. A door was open and its lights still were on.

Officials with SPD say the man was shot in the stomach; they believe he was shot a few blocks away from where he was found outside of a recording studio on Fairfield at McNeil. Police say the man is not cooperating with their investigation.

At 8:35 p.m., dispatch records show a report of gunfire on Marshall Street between westbound Interstate 20 and Franklin Street. While occurring about the same time, it was not immediately clear whether it’s related to the shooting at Fairfield at Baker.

No suspect information has been released.
