Anthony Robinson was 17 and a senior at Scotlandville High School when he was shot and killed on March 10, 2025, at about 2:50 p.m. at the Village Green Apartments on Bradfield Avenue in Baton Rouge. Friends and family remembered him as positive, caring and planning to become a therapist. He and a friend were getting off their school bus when a 16-year-old, identified as Percy Jones, allegedly ran toward them and opened fire. Robinson was struck multiple times, taken to a hospital and later pronounced dead.

The Baton Rouge Police Department arrested Percy Jones the same day; he was booked into the East Baton Rouge Juvenile Detention Center and initially charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and illegal use of a weapon. On April 9, 2025, an East Baton Rouge Parish Grand Jury indicted Jones and he was ordered to be tried as an adult, with charges amended to second-degree murder and illegal use of a weapon. Scotlandville High School held a memorial for students and staff to mourn his loss.

If anyone knew Anthony, saw what happened at the Village Green Apartments, or has information about the dispute that preceded the shooting, please come forward.
