On the afternoon of December 2, 2020, a shooting in the 2800 block of Dougherty Drive in Baton Rouge left 23-year-old Brandon Childs dead. The shooting occurred around 3:20 p.m.; a male teenager was also shot and taken to a hospital with critical injuries, though those injuries were later described as non-life-threatening. Both victims were transported with apparent gunshot wounds, and Childs succumbed to his injuries.

Baton Rouge Police Detectives identified a suspect and, on March 8, 2021, with help from the Louisiana State Police Fugitive Task Force, authorities arrested 23-year-old Renwick Jordan of Zachary. Jordan was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on charges that included First Degree Murder, Attempted First Degree Murder, and Illegal use of Weapons or Dangerous Instrumentalities. The investigation remained ongoing.

If anyone has information about the shooting or knew Brandon Childs, please share what you know with investigators.
