Arrest made in connection with teens shooting death in Louisiana
Police said officers responded to reports of a shooting at about 1:40 a.m. July 27 in the 1700 block of North Market Street near Superior Smoke Shop. When officers arrived, they found McDonald suffering from a gunshot wound to her upper body. She was transported to Ochsner LSU Health, where she later died from her injuries.
Investigators said a large crowd had gathered in a shopping center parking lot before the incident, during which multiple vehicles exchanged gunfire in the roadway. McDonald was struck during the exchange, according to authorities.
On August 18, 2025, investigators obtained an arrest warrant for Jon Darius Scott, 25, for illegal use of weapons in connection with the case.
Scott was taken into custody on Friday, August 29, 2025, by Shreveport Police homicide detectives, with assistance from the U.S. Marshals Task Force and the Special Response Team. Authorities said he was arrested without incident during a search warrant operation and transported to the Shreveport Police Investigations Division.
Detectives later charged Scott with one count of second-degree murder.
Shreveport Police expressed gratitude to federal and local partners who assisted in the arrest and extended condolences to the McDonald family.
