A late-morning confrontation at a Lemon Road residence in Zachary, Louisiana, ended with 23-year-old Deshawn Sensley dead of a gunshot wound. The shooting occurred on June 8, 2019, after brothers Denzel and Bruce Jones arrived around 11:00 a.m. intending to fight another man at the home. When those inside declined to fight, Sensley reportedly asked the brothers to leave.

As the Jones brothers were departing, authorities say Bruce Jones pointed a gun from his truck window and threatened to shoot Sensley. Sensley then drew his own handgun and an exchange of gunfire followed. Sensley was taken to a local hospital and died of his injuries. Denzel and Bruce Jones were arrested; both told detectives they acted in self-defense, with Bruce saying he drew only because Sensley was walking behind his truck and Denzel saying Sensley fired first. Two other adults and a minor were present during the incident.

Are there witnesses who can clarify who fired first or the events inside and outside the house that morning?
