Shreveport Police Department officers arrested two convicted felons, Anthony Davis and Rodney Garner, following a traffic stop near Broadway Avenue and Illinois Avenue. During the stop, officers detected the odor of suspected narcotics and discovered that both occupants were armed with firearms.

Investigations confirmed that both men are prohibited from possessing weapons due to their status as convicted felons.

Garner's status as a felon was confirmed via a prior case involving unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling. Both firearms were seized by the department.
