In the summer of 2020, police responded to a call from the Northern Louisiana Medical Center in regard to a possible sex crime. The victim's mother stated that she had discovered that her son had been sexually assaulted. The victim told police that he had been walking with his friends when he was offered a ride home by someone he knew, referred to as CR. He stated that CR took him to his residence, where he assaulted him despite his multiple protests. After the assault, the victim ran out and to his own residence, where he waited two weeks before telling anyone. Police arrested CR and took him to the Lincoln Parish Detention Center.
