"U.S. Attorney Zachary A. Keller stated that authorities are investigating 'every angle' of the shooting, particularly how Elkins secured the firearm used in the crime. He expressed hope that holding Ford accountable would provide some solace to the Shreveport community."
"The shooting, described as an 'execution-style' attack, has left the Shreveport community grappling with the contrast between Elkins' online persona as a caring father and the horrific actions he committed."
Charles Ford, a 56-year-old Shreveport resident, was arrested for being a felon in possession of a firearm and making false statements to federal agents. The charges are linked to the gun used by Shamar Elkins, who killed eight children during a domestic disturbance. Elkins, a Louisiana Army National Guard veteran, died after a police chase. The incident is the deadliest mass killing in the U.S. in two years, prompting investigations into how Elkins obtained the firearm.
