hello I’m Keshun Cole mom, I don’t know how I got to this page. I want say thank you for prayers. Keshun was really loved. Them young men didn’t know him figure that his car look like somebody else started shooting. Keshun was getting off work and talking to me on phone. I didn’t see him anymore. Them boys will only serve 18 years and 10 year. We need ppl that will fight for own kids

KB, I'm so sorry for the loss of your son. It's horribly tragic how often we see such light sentences for such a horrific act. You and your family will be in my prayers tonight.

On the afternoon of June 26, 2021, gunfire erupted in the Cedar Grove neighborhood of Shreveport, Louisiana. Keshun Cole, a 20-year-old Black/African American man, was driving when a vehicle pulled alongside at Union Avenue and West 62nd Street and a passenger opened fire. Cole’s car continued and later crashed at West 69th Street and Union Avenue. First responders found him gravely wounded and he later died at Ochsner LSU Health that same day.

The Shreveport Police Department opened a homicide investigation and identified two suspects. In October 2021 a Caddo Parish grand jury returned indictments against 19-year-old Datavious Deon Simmons and 18-year-old Brandon Damon Glover. The driver of the vehicle in which Simmons was a passenger identified Simmons as the shooter. Another man, Joshua Thompson, was charged with knowing about the crime and failing to report it.

Are there witnesses or anyone who lived in Cedar Grove at the time who can add details about what happened that afternoon?
