House Resolution No. by Representative Walters urges the governor and the Department of Public Safety and Corrections to consider temporarily assigning the Louisiana State Police to assist with law enforcement duties in Shreveport. This request comes in light of the ongoing investigation into the shooting death of Brandon Davenport, which occurred on May 18, 2025, during an encounter with police. The resolution emphasizes the importance of ensuring justice and thorough investigation in this tragic incident.

The Louisiana State Police are currently leading the investigation into the circumstances surrounding Davenport's death and are also providing support to the city of Shreveport. The resolution seeks to enhance law enforcement presence and support in the city until the investigation is concluded, highlighting the need for collaboration between state and local law enforcement agencies during this critical time.
