One arrested after deadly Louisiana mall shooting

Louisiana authorities have charged a 17-year-old with murder, and they are searching for another suspect after bystanders were caught in the crossfire of a shooting at a mall in Baton Rouge on Thursday that killed one teenage girl.
During a news conference, the Louisiana Governor vowed to crack down on gang violence that has plagued the Capital city.
The tough-on-crime governor, who said he spoke with FBI Director Kash Patel, promised to utilise state, local and federal resources to address the issue and that consequences “are going to start being felt immediately.” Landry said he is asking all levels and sectors of law enforcement — including the National Guard, FBI, US Department of Justice to “prepare for a targeted warrant sweep” for anyone connected to the mall shooting and focus on the “neighbourhoods that these individuals came out of.”
