On the late afternoon of November 16, 2019, 29-year-old Charles Dakota Koti Arnold was found shot to death in his car on North Sherwood Forest Boulevard in Baton Rouge. Arnold, a White/Caucasian electrician from Denham Springs, was taken to Ochsner Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

Police review of area video identified a man and a woman with Arnold near the time of the killing; the man wore bright red shoes. Those two were later located living in a vacant apartment on Bard Avenue. Investigators say the clothing in the apartment matched the video, and Felisha Smith admitted she arranged to meet Arnold to buy narcotics and brought Ronald James Irvin with her. Both Smith and Irvin reportedly entered Arnold’s car and are accused of intending to rob him.

Both Ronald James Irvin, 51, and Felisha Smith, 38, were arrested and booked into the Parish Prison and charged with first-degree murder and armed robbery. Does anyone have information about Arnold’s movements that afternoon or saw the vehicle on North Sherwood Forest Boulevard?
