BATON ROUGE — Gov. Jeff Landry said Monday that he has ordered the Louisiana State Police to work with local authorities to come up with an enhanced security plan for LSU games after a shooting that left two people injured during the Homecoming game on Saturday.
The governor has ordered LSP to work with LSU Police, Baton Rouge Police and the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office for a more robust security plan for the next home game against Texas A&M on Oct. 25.
"We will continue assessing the security to ensure all future games are safe. The level of violence and disruption will not be tolerated," Landry said.
Two people were hurt in a shooting along Highland Road near Dalrymple Drive around 8:30 p.m. on Saturday. They were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
