Police are searching for a Louisiana woman who left her boyfriend in a critical condition after she allegedly shot him for refusing to argue with her. The shooting unfolded early Saturday morning July 18, in the Caddo Heights neighborhood of Shreveport at around 7.30am in the 1400 block of Grigsby Street. A warrant has now been issued for Jenalisha Lawrence, 29, who has been charged with attempted second-degree murder in the shooting that left her boyfriend in a critical situation.
Authorities at Shreveport Police Department said they were called to the home
over report of a shooting and when they arrived they found a 34-year-old man on
the sidewalk suffering a gunshot wound to the body. He was taken to Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport with
life-threatening injuries and he is still listed as in critical condition,
according to KXAN.
Witnesses told investigators that Lawrence shot the victim following an
interaction in which the man refused to argue with her. Police say that Lawrence was the man’s ‘estranged’
girlfriend. She fled the scene in a green Honda Accord with a primer on
the left passenger’s side front door. Police
are now searching for her and say she has two addresses in Shreveport but
investigators believe she likely fled to the Dallas, Texas area where she is
from. Her bond is set at $150,000.
