A large gathering on Poland Street in the Allendale neighborhood of Shreveport, Louisiana, in the late hours of a Saturday in September 2025 ended in deadly gunfire. The shooting killed 44-year-old Johnny Ray Robinson, a husband, father and business owner, and 41-year-old Jonathan Green, and wounded six others. Investigators say multiple shooters were involved, and the crowd of more than 150 people left police surprised by the size and unclear purpose of the event.

Authorities identified 21-year-old Rissan Smith Jr. as a suspect and issued an arrest warrant charging him with attempted second-degree murder; police said more charges were likely and described him as armed, dangerous and believed to have gang ties. Detectives also stated they believe additional suspects were involved and that further arrests and charges were expected. Robinson’s family remembered him as a loving, caring and helpful man.

If anyone attended that gathering or has information about the shooters, please share what you know with investigators.
