Freshman running back JT Landry was booked into the East Baton Rouge prison yesterday on two counts of accessory after the fact to second-degree murder. The football player turned himself yesterday evening after a bench warrant was issued for his arrest. He’s accused of letting two friends from his hometown of Alexandria stay in his dorm, knowing they were wanted for murder. The suspects, 17-year-old Shemell Jacobs and 18-year-old Keldrick Jordan, were arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service earlier this week.
Tragedy was averted in Shreveport yesterday when a two year old boy was spotted screaming in a hot car alone. That person flagged down a police officer who managed to get the child out of the vehicle in 93 degree weather. Police Corporal Christopher Bordelon says the temperature inside the vehicle was even hotter, even with the window rolled down.
Cut 7 (09) “…removed the child.”
The boy’s mother has been charged with child desertion.
