13-year-old Landry Anglin was killed May 1st when she was struck by a stray bullet in her home.
The school where 13-year-old Landry Anglin attended is in shock today after she was killed Sunday afternoon at her Shreveport home by a stray bullet. Police say a shooting between three vehicles outside the home led to her death. Caddo Middle Magnet School Principal Robin DeBusk said Landry always greeted everyone at school.
“She always had a hug for you on the bus ramp in the morning and in the afternoon, and so overall it’s devastating for our family here at CMM,” said DeBusk.
DeBusk said students are aware of the tragic shooting and they have extra counselors at the school today for students and teachers. She said it’s been a tough day as they are trying to grapple with the sudden loss of their 8th-grade classmate.
“The counselors are following Landry’s schedule and going and talking to each of the actual classes she was in throughout the day today,” said DeBusk.
Anglin was a member of the school’s lacrosse team and DeBusk said she spoke with her mother after the shooting, and even in her profound grief, she asked the school to look after those who were close to her daughter.
“And she, of course, she’s at a loss, she’s just devastated. And one of the main things Michelle was worried about was her friends, please check on her friends, so that’s what we’ve been doing,” said DeBusk.
DeBusk said the school plans to hold an event in her memory later in the school year.
