Three-year-old Michael Thomas Jr. died on April 1, 2022, after a loaded handgun was found and discharged inside a Shreveport home.

Two adults who were in the home that day were taken into custody and later charged. Demarion D. Thomas was charged with negligent homicide and Trimeshia Thomas was charged as a principal to negligent homicide, with investigators focusing on how the children gained access to the weapon.

Michael’s death is described as an accidental shooting that left the family devastated and raised questions about safe firearm storage. Does anyone have information about the household or the events that led to the children finding the gun?
