Eric L. Cox, 54, was fatally shot on June 18, 2017, in Keithville, Louisiana, just outside Shreveport. His death occurred on Father’s Day and was one of two killings that day; 39-year-old Tara Wren was also killed.

Authorities quickly identified a suspect in the double homicide. The search ended when that person was found dead in East Texas from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, closing the pursuit of who was believed responsible for the slayings.

Cox worked as a welder and master carpenter and owned Tiger Construction Company. His obituary calls him the heart of his family; he was survived by his father, son, grandchildren and other relatives.

If anyone knew Eric or has information about the circumstances in Keithville on June 18, please come forward.
