- The Baton Rouge Police Department held a news conference Thursday, Aug. 3, about a deadly officer-involved shooting that happened a couple of weeks prior.

The press conference began at 11 a.m

The shooting happened at an apartment complex on College Drive near Holloway Avenue on Friday night, July 21.

Police said the armed suspect, later identified as 23-year-old Dantonior Stalling, was shot after he allegedly ignored their verbal commands and pointed a handgun at them.

Law enforcement was called to the scene around 9:30 p.m. after Stalling allegedly shot someone, identified as Dyshon Williams, 18, in what was later determined to be part of a custody dispute, officials explained.
