A warrant is out for 18‑year‑old Javon Davis after police say he fled the scene where 21‑year‑old Cam’ron Scott was shot and killed early February 21 at Canan Village Apartments. Crowley police responded to calls of gunfire just before 2 a.m., and when officers arrived they found Scott with a fatal head wound. He was taken to a hospital but did not survive.
Investigators say witnesses pointed them toward Davis as the last person seen near the shooting. Police recovered a handgun they believe was used in the incident. Based on that, authorities obtained a warrant charging Davis with second‑degree murder and are urging anyone who knows where he is to contact the Crowley Police Department.
For law enforcement in Crowley, this case has been moving quickly but remains open. Detectives are combing through witness statements and physical evidence to build a strong case. They say the recovered handgun could link Davis directly to the shooting, but without him in custody, the case can’t close.
Officers have been following up on leads and talking with neighbors who heard the shots that night. The sound of gunfire in a community that usually sleeps quietly at that hour has left residents uneasy. Many have said they are cooperating with police to help bring the suspect in.
The police department is making public appeals, hoping that someone who knows where Davis is will step forward. Law enforcement officials emphasize that tips can be anonymous and that any bit of information could be key to capturing him and preventing further violence.
Cam’ron Scott’s death has sparked grief across Crowley, and authorities say they want justice for his family. They’re encouraging people to share any video footage or details that might help their search for Davis.
Crowley’s emergency responders and police officers have been praised for their quick action at the scene. Still, the community’s sense of security has been rattled by the shooting. Families who live near the apartment complex say they’re watching their children more closely and talking to them about staying safe.
While the warrant stands and the investigation continues, Crowley police say they will not relent in their efforts to find Davis and answer the questions left in the wake of this tragic shooting.
