Shreveport police officers arrested 17-year-old Atreveon Robinson on Oct. 27 following a proactive traffic stop at Jewella Avenue and Valley View Drive. Around 11pm, an alert officer observed Robinson operating a vehicle without wearing a seatbelt. During the stop, Robinson was found in possession of two concealed handguns.

Robinson now faces charges for two counts of Illegal Possession of a Handgun by a minor under 18 and Obstruction of Justice. This arrest highlights the ongoing commitment of the SPD to keep illegal firearms off the streets and reduce violent crime in the community.
