On a Wednesday night in April 2016, 38-year-old Leco Reshon Cole of Baton Rouge was killed in a quadruple shooting inside a home on Kerrit Drive. The East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office reported the attack happened just before midnight; at least two people wearing dark clothing entered and opened fire inside the residence. Three other people were wounded and one surviving victim, the mother of one of Cole’s daughters, was left in a coma. The assailants fled on foot into nearby woods; K-9 teams and a helicopter searched but did not immediately locate them. Investigators did not have a motive publicly identified in the hours after the shooting, and no suspects had been publicly announced.

Cole’s death left a family and community seeking answers. If anyone has information about the Kerrit Drive shooting or the people who ran into the woods that night, please share what you know with investigators.
