Agents with the Caddo-Shreveport Narcotics Task, assisted by the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office Special Response Team, executed a search warrant at 629 Terrell Drive in Shreveport today and arrested two brothers.

Following an investigation by the Task Force, agents executed the warrant at the residence and seized approximately $8,000 in cash, 20 grams of marijuana, and three firearms, including an AK-47 assault rifle, Remington 700 rifle with scope, and a stolen .45 caliber firearm.
