Malcolm Cooper was 23 when he was shot in Shreveport, Louisiana, on March 29, 2020. Officers responded just before 11:00 p.m. to Bayou Oaks Apartments and found Cooper outside an apartment building with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to Ochsner LSU Health Hospital and died shortly after arrival; the Caddo Parish Coroner’s Office confirmed the cause of death as multiple gunshots.

Initial canvassing of the complex turned up no known eyewitnesses to the shooting, so detectives searched for witnesses and surveillance video to reconstruct the events. Investigators identified a primary suspect and an arrest warrant was issued for 17-year-old Demarcus Upshaw, who was charged with one count of second-degree murder. Three other young men were later indicted in connection with the case: 17-year-old Roszereo Lajuan Seamster IV, 19-year-old Jontavious Jacquez Beaner, and 20-year-old Reginald Demond McCullough Jr., the latter indicted as a principal to the attempted armed robbery of Cooper on the same night.

Are there witnesses or anyone with video from Bayou Oaks Apartments on March 29 who can help clarify what happened?
