A man accused of sho0ting eight young children de@d in Louisiana on Sunday morning has been identified as Shamar Elkins, a father to some of the victims. Elkins, 31, a former member of the Louisiana National Guard, reportedly opened fire at a home in Shreveport during a domestic disturbance with his 34-year-old wife, Shaneiqua Pugh, former Caddo Parish Constable Patrick Young told the Daily Mail. The suspect, who was fatally sh0t by police during a vehicle chase, is accused of k!lling eight children, with the youngest being just 18 months old, the Shreveport Police Department said. A total of 10 people were sh0t, with Pugh and another woman surviving.   Shreveport police told the Daily Mail the pair had an argument at the home they shared with the children before Elkins shooting rampage. One of the women is expected to survive the attack, but the other woman had more serious life-threatening injuries, cops said. The horrific ordeal unfolded across three different locations. The first was where the children were massacred in a home just a stone's throw away from a Baptist church. Elkins then performed a carjacking at that location and led officers on a high-speed chase, traveling a quarter-mile away, police said. He then drove to the third location. He was shot and k!lled by police there. The crime scene was described as 'rather extensive' by police spokesman Christopher Bordelon. 'We do believe him to be the only individual that fired gunsh0ts at these locations here,' he added. Shreveport Mayor Tom Arceneaux addressed the shaken community after the sho0ting. The mayor added that the incident is 'maybe the worst tragic situation we've ever had in Shreveport.' 'So, right now we're going to process the information, and it's in very good hands,' he continued. The investigation remains ongoing. Elkins previously served in the Louisiana Army National Guard from August 2013 to August 2020 as a Signal Support System Specialist and a Fire Support Specialist, an Army official told Fox News Digital. 'He has no deployment. He left the Army as a private.' The post Man who k!lled eight children in Louisiana mass sho0ting was father to some of the victims appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
