SHREVEPORT, La. (KTAL/KMSS) — The Caddo Parish Coroner's office has identified the woman killed last week in an accident happening in south Shreveport at Ellerbe Road and LA Highway 3132. According to the coroner's office, Carolyn Romero, 80, of Shreveport, was taken to a local hospital after the wreck that happened just after 1:00 p.m. on Friday, May 22. According to SPD, when officers arrived at the scene, they found two SUVs heavily damaged.
