A 22-year-old man was shot and seriously injured at the University Crescent Apartments at 4500 Burbank Drive on Sunday at about 2 a.m., according to Casey Rayborn Hicks, East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman.
When deputies arrived at the scene, EMS had already taken the 22-year-old victim to a local hospital.
Witnesses told the deputies two men in a brown truck followed the victim from Mike’s Daiquiris & Grill after an argument between the victim and two other people in the bar’s parking lot.
The victim eventually stopped at the University Crescent Apartment’s parking lot and got out of the car. Then one of the men in the truck shot him.
The brown or tan Ford truck with gold writing covering the entire rear window — possibly with the word “commercial” — was last seen headed east on Burbank.
