A third suspect has been arrested in connection with the January 11 shooting at a bonfire party near Dubberly that left six people injured.
Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker announced the arrest of Kobe Sheppard, 21, of Sibley, who was taken into custody without incident Wednesday at his residence on Willis Road.
During the investigation, detectives executed a search warrant at a Koby Lane address in Sibley, where they recovered a firearm believed to have been used in the shooting. Parker stated that Sheppard admitted during an interview to firing a weapon at the party.
Sheppard has been booked into Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center on six counts of attempted first-degree murder. His bond has been set at $900,000.
Sheppard is the third person arrested in connection with the incident. Earlier this week, Zyan Adominick-Jaire Stanley, 23, of Minden, surrendered to authorities and was also charged with six counts of attempted first-degree murder. His bond was set at $900,000.
Jacolby Tyrone Snell, 22, of Doyline, was arrested Monday evening and charged with accessory after the fact and two counts of modifying a firearm to a machine gun. Investigators found two Glock pistols converted into fully automatic weapons at Snell’s residence during a search. His bond totals $120,000.

“During the course of the investigation so far, our detectives have conducted numerous interviews, enforced several warrants, and we’re not finished,” Parker said. “We are still investigating information we’ve developed.”
The shooting occurred late Saturday night at an unpermitted bonfire gathering on Highway 531, with hundreds of people reportedly in attendance. Deputies responded to the scene just before midnight and found six victims, two of whom were initially listed in critical condition.
Parker provided an update earlier in the week, stating that the two critically injured individuals have since stabilized and are expected to recover.
“We hope for their full recovery,” Parker said.
The Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate the incident, and additional arrests or charges may follow.
All subjects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
