Following the arrest of ten suspects in a special operation by the Caddo-Shreveport Narcotics Unit and Federal Agents, Shreveport Mayor Cedric B. Glover issues this statement: | “I strongly support the work of the Caddo-Shreveport Narcotics Unit and today, I continue to lend my unwavering support and applaud these agencies even more because of the impact this particular investigation will have on our streets, communities, and neighborhoods. This intense and very thorough special operation and ultimate arrest of these particular violent offenders sends throughout the City a strong, clear and very real message that criminal street gangs, their violence and their illegal activities will not be tolerated in Shreveport or Caddo Parish. | It goes without saying that these arrests and the ongoing investigation will in many ways make Shreveport a safer place to live especially our children and families. | I commend Sheriff Steve Prator and Police Chief Henry L. Whitehorn, the U.S. Marshall’s Task Force and Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms and maintain my support of this very efficient and effective collaboration.” |
