A late-night disagreement at Monterrey Hills Apartments in Vivian, Louisiana, ended with 24-year-old James Carroll shot dead between the apartment buildings on the evening of Wednesday, March 30, 2016. Carroll and 18-year-old James Taylor III had left the complex together earlier that night; a returned dispute escalated and, at about 10:30 p.m., Taylor allegedly produced a pistol and fired twice, striking Carroll.
Taylor reportedly fled in a tan Crown Victoria. Detectives later found the vehicle abandoned near the I-220 and I-20 interchange in Shreveport and located Taylor hiding in a south Shreveport apartment complex in the early hours of Thursday, taking him into custody without incident. He was booked into the Caddo Correctional Center and a Caddo Parish Grand Jury indicted him in June 2016 for second-degree murder.
Are there witnesses or anyone with information about what sparked the argument that night?
