Louisiana mass shooting kills eight children
Shreveport authorities are investigating a catastrophic shooting spree that claimed the lives of seven siblings and their young cousin.
The victims, ranging in age from 3 to 11, were reportedly executed by Shamar Elkins during a violent confrontation with his estranged wife.
Two women and another child were also wounded in the attack, which spanned multiple crime scenes in a residential neighborhood.
Elkins, an Army veteran with a prior firearms conviction, was fatally shot by responding officers after a brief standoff.
