A late-afternoon shooting at a BREC park on Evangeline Street in Baton Rouge ended in the death of 24-year-old Calvin Roberts. On September 13, 2022, Roberts was shot multiple times, taken to a local hospital in critical condition, and later died of his injuries. The Baton Rouge Police Department’s Homicide Division opened an investigation that quickly identified two 17-year-old juveniles as suspects.

Initial booking information shows one juvenile faced unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, possession of a handgun by a juvenile, illegal carrying of a handgun, and possession with intent to distribute marijuana, and had an outstanding warrant for attempted second-degree murder in another case. The second juvenile was arrested for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and possession of marijuana. Later, charges against one teen were upgraded to first-degree murder, armed robbery, and illegal use of a weapon; both were held at the East Baton Rouge Juvenile Detention Center. The investigation into the shooting remains ongoing.

Did anyone in the area see or hear anything at the park that afternoon that could help investigators?
