A Bogalusa resident was shot to death outside his home in the early hours of Saturday, and police believe Robert Charles Williams, 28, 706 City Limits Rd. was the victim of both murder and robbery.

The Bogalusa Police Department got the call about the shooting at 1:52 a.m. Saturday.

“EMS responded, but the victim was dead at the scene,” said Capt. Joe Culpepper. “We think he was outside his residence when he was approached by three males who tried to rob him and ended up killing him.”
