In the early evening of December 7, 2019, a trip to a local park in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, turned fatal for Ivory Profit Jr., a 25-year-old male. Profit was at Howell Park on Winbourne Avenue when he was shot. He was rushed to a nearby hospital but succumbed to his injuries shortly after his arrival. The incident that led to his death is believed by investigators to have been a robbery.
Less than a month later, on January 3, 2020, the Baton Rouge Police Department announced an arrest in
connection with the deadly shooting. The suspect was identified as 18-year-old D'Orsay Johnson. Authorities believe that Johnson shot Profit while in the process of robbing him.
Following his arrest, Johnson was booked on charges of first-degree murder and armed robbery for his alleged role in the death of Ivory Profit Jr. In addition to these charges, he also faced accusations of drug possession and other weapons-related offenses. The resolution of these charges in the legal system is not detailed in the available information.
