An arrest warrant for suspects in a murder investigation involving a 2018 missing person complaint provides additional details of the alleged homicide.
According to a warrant filed for Paige Williams, age 26, the Ouachita Parish Sheriff’s Office received a complaint about a missing person — Donald Atkins — in mid-September 2018.
Investigators learned Atkins was staying with a friend in the 2400 block of Jonesboro Road. The friend said he had not seen Atkins in several days. He said he remembered Atkins having a fight with his girlfriend over the phone. The next morning, Atkins was gone, but his wallet, vehicle and keys remained at the house.
A cell phone tower trace for the date of Sept. 2, 2018, showed Atkins' phone suffered a “traumatic event” ranging from being submerged in water to being shattered. The hit was in the proximity of 2400 Jonesboro Road.
