Aaron Brown was 18 when he was killed in a drive-by shooting on an August afternoon in 2021 after getting off the school bus in Bogalusa. As he stood at the corner of Dan Street and Hickory Avenue, a vehicle approached and multiple gunshots struck him; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The attack devastated his family and shook the community.

Investigators with the Bogalusa Police Department and the Louisiana State Police determined the shooting was planned rather than random. Authorities say text messages between the perpetrators showed an intention to shoot someone as students walked home. Three individuals were identified in the investigation, including a juvenile.
