Keandre Williams was 25 and from Baker, Louisiana, when he was shot and killed inside an apartment at the Alight Baton Rouge Apartments on West McKinley Street in Baton Rouge on the night of September 21, 2022. He had been visiting a female acquaintance and had been at her unit about thirty minutes when the woman’s ex-boyfriend, Alvin Allen III, arrived around 11:30 p.m., according to police reports.

Police say Allen began beating on the front door, kicked it open, forced his way inside armed with a rifle, and shot Williams multiple times. Williams died inside the apartment. Detectives identified Allen as the suspect and arrested him the next day; he was booked on charges including first-degree murder, home invasion, and illegal use of a weapon.

Anyone who was in or near the Alight Baton Rouge Apartments that night, or who has information about the shooting, is asked to come forward.
