Michael Wayne Henry was 56 when he was killed while working as a security guard at Thrifty Liquor on Linwood Avenue in Shreveport. On the evening of October 16, 2015, just after 10 p.m., an armed robber described as a Black male wearing a dark-hooded sweatshirt and unusual pink gloves entered the store. A single shot struck Henry in the upper body; he was taken to University Health and died that night.

Henry had served in the military and with the Shreveport Police Department before working as a security guard. Detectives reviewed the store’s surveillance footage and investigated possible links to other armed robberies nearby, but the suspect has not been identified or caught and the investigation remains open.

If anyone has information about the man in the dark-hooded sweatshirt and pink gloves or the events that night, please share what is known with the Shreveport Police Department.
