On the evening of Sunday, February 28, 2021, a burst of gunfire shattered the night on North 12th Street in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, leaving a young man dead. Keldrick Love, a 23-year-old male, was found lying on the pavement, the victim of a fatal shooting. Authorities were alerted to a body discovered on the curb at approximately 7:20 p.m. and arrived to find a grim scene.
Emergency responders pronounced Love dead at the location, and the East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner's Office later
confirmed that he had suffered from multiple gunshot wounds. In the immediate aftermath, Baton Rouge Police detectives launched an investigation into the homicide, seeking to understand the events that led to the deadly violence.
From the outset, the motive behind the shooting was unclear, and law enforcement officials had not identified any suspects. Despite appeals to the public for anyone with information to come forward and contact the Violent Crimes Unit or Crime Stoppers, details about potential leads or arrests have not been publicly disclosed in the years following the incident. The case of who killed Keldrick Love and why remains an open question, with no announced suspects or arrests to bring closure to the tragic loss of a young life.
