Shreveport Woman Arrested After Tense Standoff

On Wednesday (10-26-22) police were called to the Queensborough neighborhood to serve out a warrant. Upon arrival, the woman in question locked herself in a home and refused to come out.

After some time of trying to contact the woman to get her to come out, the woman began firing shots from the home.

Police took cover from the shots being fired and two police vehicles were hit in the gunfire. A U.S. Marshal's vehicle was hit and damaged, as well as an armored vehicle from Bossier. The U.S. Marshal's vehicle had to be towed due to the damage.

Thankfully no one was hurt during the gunfire. This is an ongoing investigation. This article will be updated as more information is forthcoming.
