Baton Rouge police are investigating a shooting that left one man dead and four others injured Saturday afternoon, according to the Baton Rouge Police Department.
Officers responded at approximately 3:36 p.m. on June 27, 2026, to the 3500 block of Osceola Street after receiving reports of a shooting involving multiple victims. When officers arrived, they discovered five individuals who had been shot.
One victim was pronounced dead at the scene and was later identified as 49-year-old Randall Holmes.
The four remaining victims were transported to local hospitals for treatment. Their conditions have not been fully released, though officials confirmed they were taken for medical care following the incident.
Preliminary information indicates the shooting stemmed from an argument involving teenagers that escalated into a physical fight before shots were fired. Investigators are still working to determine the exact sequence of events and what led to the deadly violence.
At this time, police say no suspects have been identified, and the investigation remains ongoing as detectives continue to gather evidence and speak with witnesses.
Authorities are urging anyone with information about the shooting to come forward and assist investigators as they work to bring clarity to the case.
