Alexander James, 31, was shot to death outside a hotel on Monkhouse Drive in Shreveport on November 11, 2015. A dispute that morning escalated to fatal violence; James suffered multiple gunshot wounds to his upper body and was taken to University Health, where he was pronounced dead.

Detectives from the Violent Crimes Unit said evidence at the scene indicated the shooter was someone known to James. The suspect fled after the shooting. Years later a suspect was identified and charged in connection with James’s death: Carlos Heard was formally accused of the murder, a development that renewed attention on the case.

Few public details are available about the arrest or ensuing court proceedings. If anyone knew Alexander, was there information about his movements that morning, or observed anything near the hotel on Monkhouse Drive, please share what is known.
