5 dead after shooting spree in Louisiana

https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/26/us/louisiana-shootings/index.html

Five people are dead following a string of shootings in Louisiana, law enforcement officials said.

Two shootings took place in Ascension and Livingston parishes, near Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on Saturday morning.
The suspect, 21-year-old Dakota Theriot, is accused of killing his parents, Elizabeth and Keith Theriot, both 50, in the town of Gonzalez, the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office said.
Authorities were searching for Theriot on Saturday and said they believe he is "armed and dangerous."
He was last seen driving a gray and silver 2004 Dodge pickup with Louisiana license plate C583809, authorities said.
