Jar’vion Johnson was 20 when he was found shot multiple times inside a car in the driveway of his home on Tams Drive in Baton Rouge. His mother discovered him on March 17, 2024. Police describe the shooting as not random and believe Johnson was specifically targeted, and note this was the fourth killing in that immediate area within a single month.

Officers pursued and questioned a person who bystanders said claimed involvement and had been seen with a gun, but officials clarified no suspect had been formally named and no arrests were announced. The Baton Rouge Police Department has asked the public for tips and any home surveillance footage that could help the investigation.

If anyone in the Tams Drive or Tamari Drive area saw anything unusual that afternoon or has footage that might be relevant, please contact investigators.
