gun safety

Sheriff Julian Whittington and the Bossier Sheriff's Office will be hosting the annual summer shooting program

Designed for children who might be receiving their first gun for Christmas this year, this course provides basic instruction for those who may never have fired a gun

Maybe your child's biggest wish for Christmas this year is for Santa Claus to bring them their first hunting rifle or BB gun?

The Sheriff's office says the class is perfect if you plan to get your child a BB gun for Christmas or plan to take them hunting.

Hunters and gun enthusiasts will have a place to sight their rifles in the near future when Caddo Parish Sheriff Steve Prator opens up the rifle range at the Caddo Sheriff's Regional Training Academy to the public.

A Shreveport man is giving a bandaged thumbs up and thanking his luck that he wasn't hurt more seriously after a supposed gun cleaning went bad.

Calling all ladies! If you're not familiar with how to use a gun, or maybe you are and need a refresher, the Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office has you covered.

If you're planning to give a child their first gun for Christmas this year, then you'll definitely want to have that child take advantage of the Caddo Sheriff's "First Gun Course."

At approximately 11:30 PM on August 30, 2015 Harrison County 911 dispatchers received a call from Good Shepherd Hospital in Longview regarding a shooting victim in the emergency room.

Times, they are a changing.  In days of old, it was nothing to walk into a man's living room and see his entire gun collection proudly displayed in the gun cabinet for the whole world to witness.  But those days are over, and with good reason.

The newest tool for local law enforcement to teach firearms safety to children in our area is being unveiled today here in Shreveport.

Registration is currently underway for children ages 8 to 12 to participate in the Caddo Sheriff’s Office "First Gun Course." The 4-hour class will be offered from 8 a.m. until noon on December 14 and January 4.
