DeSoto Parish Sheriff’s Office investigated a shooting incident in Logansport Tuesday night which resulted from a domestic dispute.

 

According to a press release, 25-year old Eric D. Ford was arrested after he retrieved a shotgun from a car and shot multiple rounds striking one victim in the shoulder as he attempted to leave the scene, and another that tried to rush Ford and disarm him.

 

The disturbance occurred in the 400 block of Pierce Road in Logansport around 8:15 p.m. Authorities say both gunshot victims were able to leave the residence and later call 9-1-1 with non-life threatening injuries. Another victim was later battered by Ford inside the residence.
