Trevion Marshall

Trevion J. Marshall, a 24-year-old Black man, had his life tragically cut short on a summer evening in Shreveport, Louisiana. On June 4, 2024, in the 3500 block of Milam Street, Marshall was struck by gunfire. In a desperate attempt to save him, a friend tried to drive him to the hospital. Emergency personnel from the Shreveport Fire Department, who were already responding to the scene, intercepted the vehicle. They provided immediate medical aid and transported Marshall to a local hospital, but he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased.

The Shreveport Police Department’s Violent Crimes Unit launched an immediate homicide investigation. Through their determined efforts, investigators soon identified a suspect, Shontravious Rogers. As authorities looked into Rogers's background, they found he had active warrants for second-degree murder, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and failure to register as a sex offender, which stemmed from a prior conviction for sexual battery.

While a motive for the fatal shooting was not made public, authorities considered Rogers to be armed and dangerous and began a search for him. The pursuit concluded on July 17, 2024, when Rogers was located and apprehended in Fort Worth, Texas. His capture was the result of a collaborative effort between the Shreveport Police Department and the U.S. Marshals Service.

Following his arrest, Rogers was extradited to Shreveport and booked into the Caddo Correctional Center on July 29, 2024. With an arrest made, the case against Shontravious Rogers entered the judicial process as of July 2024.
