Anthony Wayne Babino, 21, was shot and killed on Victoria Street in Scott, Louisiana, on the evening of Monday, September 23, 2024. Officers from the Scott Police Department found him with gunshot wounds just before 7:30 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police identified 21-year-old Travian Cobb as the suspect and took him into custody; Cobb was later charged in connection with Babino’s murder. Earlier in 2024, Babino had been the alleged victim in a separate April choking incident involving a Scott Police Department lieutenant. That investigation was forwarded to the Lafayette District Attorney’s Office, which declined to press charges. An attorney who represented Babino said the estate planned to pursue a civil action related to that earlier encounter.

Are there witnesses or local residents who saw activity on Victoria Street that night or who can provide information about either incident?
