Woman wounded at Louisiana casino

A woman was shot in the arm after she refused to hand over her pocketbook on Sunday in a Louisiana gaming property parking lot.

The unnamed victim was taken to a local hospital for emergency treatment. She’s expected to survive, but an update on her condition wasn’t immediately available. The shooting took place at the Shreveport Airport Casino while the woman was walking to a car in the lot. After shooting her, the criminal ran away from the parking lot.

Shreveport Police Department officers said the suspect was a thin black man, perhaps in his 20s. As of Monday, the suspect had yet to be apprehended. There’s no word on how much money was taken, and if any valuables were in the pocketbook.
