We recently lost one of our brothers. As a formers 2w1/weapons guy I sincerely hope they catch the gutless piece of shit who did this. Technical Sergeant Joshua L. Kidd, assigned to the 2nd Maintenance Group as the loading standardization crew team chief at Barksdale AFB, was found shot and killed Tuesday outside on the 500 block of Parklane Drive.
KTSB Reports that Bossier Police have identified the victim of an early morning homicide in the Green Acres Subdivision that left one man dead
Police responding to several calls about gunshots in the 500 block of Parklane Drive found Joshua Kidd, 30, was pronunced dead at the scene lying outside a home with an apparent gunshot wound.
Late Tuesday afternoon, there was still heavy police presence in the area. Crime scene tape was still up in the neighborhood and police told KTBS it will likely remain an active crime scene well into the night and possibly overnight.
Detectives are investigating if the shooting is connected to nine car burglaries that happened in the neighborhood recently. Neighbors told KTBS they think Kidd may have tried to confront a burglar when he was shot..
If you can help the Kidd family in anyway please do so here!
TSgt Joshua Kidd passed away Tuesday morning September the 25th. He was assigned to Barksdale AFB Louisiana as the Loading Standardization Crew Team Chief.
TSgt. Kidd had been enlisted with the USAF for 10 years. He instantly made a positive impact on everyone who worked with him. He would go out of his way to assist deployed airmen and their family members any way he could. TSgt Kidd helped countless airmen and acted not only as a mentor but a big brother. He injected humor into the work day to make everything more enjoyable. He was mechanically inclined and always tinkering on his and other’s vehicles. TSgt Kidd was also an avid Subaru fan.
Nobody deserves this fate, especially such a young and wonderful family. He was a devoted husband and loving father. Alyssa and TSgt Kidd had just celebrated their wedding anniversary recently, as well as their son’s birthday and his beautiful wife’s birthday. Beckham is two years old and will grow up without his father. Alyssa will raise their son, alone, because of someone’s selfish actions.
Please keep Alyssa and Beckham in your prayers and thoughts during these trying times. Thank you for supporting The Kidds.
