Two Shreveport residents arrested on homicide charges in Bossier Parish

Bossier Sheriff's Office detectives are investigating the shooting death of an elderly Shreveport man who was killed shortly before 7 p.m. at a residence in a neighborhood just south of Benton.

Detectives say the victim had just pulled into the driveway of the residence and exited his vehicle when a suspect identified as a black man wearing a black hooded sweatshirt approached him and shot him several times in the upper body. Rescue measures were taken by neighbors before emergency services arrived, but were unsuccessful and the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

During the ensuing investigation, detectives were able to locate the suspect vehicle at a residence in North Shreveport. This led to the execution of two search warrants by the Shreveport Police Department's Special Response Team and Bossier Sheriff's Office investigators early on the morning of June 14 at two locations in Shreveport.

As the investigation progressed, detectives were able to identify Landers of Destiny, 23 years old of Shreveport as the driver of the suspect vehicle and Delandro Fleming, 22 years old of Shreveport as a suspect in the homicide in Bossier Parish. Landers was arrested during the execution of one of the search warrants and Fleming was arrested at a residence on Captain Shreve Drive in Shreveport. The motive for the shooting has not yet been determined.

Landers will be booked into Bossier Max on one count of first-degree murder with bail set at $500,000. Fleming will be booked into Bossier Max on a charge of first degree murder with bail set at $1,000,000. Bossier Sheriff Julian Whittington would like to thank the Shreveport Police Department, Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office, ATF and the U.S. Marshal's Violent Offender Task Force for their collaborative efforts with the Bossier Sheriff to capture these suspects.
