A Louisiana Man Wanted for Attempted Second-Degree Murder, Drugs, and Firearms Charges Has Been Arrested, Bond Set at $1 Million

The Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office reported on September 7, 2022, that narcotics agents, U.S. deputy marshals, patrol, and K9 deputies all worked together to arrest a Shreveport, Louisiana man wanted for attempted second-degree murder on Tuesday night.

Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office narcotics agents reportedly observed Frankie Tillman, 35, on Weinstock Street in Shreveport’s Allendale neighborhood at 6:41 p.m. on Tuesday. Tillman was apprehended after a brief chase. Agents discovered 3.1 grams of crack cocaine packaged for sale in the rear of the car, as well as three unrestrained children and a loaded AR pistol ready to shoot.

“This criminal has been charged numerous times for violent crimes and illegally possessing guns and continues to take advantage of our ‘let’s make a deal’ justice system,” Sheriff Prator said. “Now he is also endangering the lives of our young children. This has to stop!”

Tillman was arrested at Milam Street and Pierre Avenue for outstanding warrants for attempted second-degree murder and felon in possession of a firearm. He was also charged with an additional felon in possession of a firearm, possession of schedule II with intent to distribute, possession of a firearm with controlled dangerous substances, flight from an officer, three counts of cruelty to a juvenile, three counts of violation of child passenger restraint law and operating a vehicle while intoxicated.

Tillman was booked into Caddo Correctional Center. His bond has been set at over $1 million.

An arrest is an indication that probable cause exists to believe the subject was involved in the offense alleged. A person is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
