As officers arrived at the business, they observed subjects fleeing from the rear of the business after failed attempts to gain entry.  

Officers pursued the would be burglars, ultimately taking one of the bandits into police custody with the assistance of a trained police K-9.  The suspect captured was identified as 23 year old D’Vonta Frierson of the 4600 block of Alton Street in Shreveport.  Frierson was subsequently charged with a single count each of Simple Burglary and Resisting an Officer. Frierson was booked into the Shreveport City Jail.

Police investigators were able to obtain surveillance video from the business, and are hopeful it’s release will lead to the identify and ultimate apprehension of the two remaining participants.
