What happened
Lawrence Green was shot and killed by Shreveport police on October 22, 2015. The Washington Post's fatal-shooting database places the encounter in Shreveport, Louisiana, and records the date. That index is a starting point for research rather than a full account of the initiating call, officers involved, any weapon allegation, available footage or subsequent legal review. A case-specific investigative release was not reliably confirmed in the materials examined for this entry. Accordingly, this account does not assert that Green fired a weapon, threatened officers or that police were exonerated. Such conclusions require a source directly documenting the encounter and its outcome.
