Ruston Police are investigating a homicide that occurred on Interstate 20 last week.
Chief Steve Rogers said investigators are still trying to pinpoint the exact location where the shooting occurred but that it was somewhere on I-20 between the Tech Drive interchange and Tarbutton Road.
Rogers could not provide a name or age of the victim Monday afternoon but said the victim was a young female who had just graduated from high school.
Chief Rogers said the department would try to release more information Tuesday.
Social media discussions of the incident said someone shot through the youth’s back window and she was taken to Northern Louisiana Medical Center last Tuesday night, but those details could not be verified.
No arrests have been made, according to Lincoln Parish Detention Center records.
